Where I go, Duck goes too.

Duck is soft. Duck is yellow.
Duck smells like a blanket.
Now Duck is lost, and his boy must get him back.
A moving story about first best friends (quoted from the back of the book).

Have You Seen Duck is an adorable story about a little who's constant companion is his stuffed Duck. They do everything together and go everywhere together, until one day Duck goes missing. Now it's up to the little boy to find his missing best friend.

This is a great story about coping with something special you've lost, finding it and not giving up. It's a story that young children can easily identify with, and they'll be happy to know that Duck does indeed get found.

I would be most content if my children grew up to be the kind of people who think decorating consists mostly of building enough bookshelves. ~ Anna Quindlen

Good children's literature appeals not only to
the child in the adult, but to the adult in the child.
