Book Description
From the author of My Deal with the Universe, a lighthearted, tender story of a girl and her steadfast duck. I spend a lot of time thinking about what Grandad said that day Webster first went missing. How if you spend too much time dwelling on the things you’ve lost, you might not notice what you’ve got in its place. And how sometimes those things can be just as wonderful. But in a different way. Sarah is turning twelve. For the last ten years, ever since her dad mysteriously left, Sarah and her mom have always celebrated together for an entire birthday week. But when Sarah finds out that this year her mother has to work, and that she’s signed Sarah up last minute for a week of culinary school instead, things go from bad to worse. At least the camp has agreed to let Sarah bring her duck, Webster. Sarah knows that with Webster by her side, she can handle whatever comes her way. But then Webster goes missing, just as Sarah’s search for her absent father comes up empty as well. Will she have to say yet another painful goodbye? In a story about love, friendship, search for identity, and the hardship of loss, Sarah finds joy and strength in unexpected friendships and learns that when we focus so much on chasing answers, we can forget to notice what we already have.

It's time to play let's pretend--and walk like the animals! Show how well you can mimic our friends in the wild, five different creatures are hiding behind the flaps, all surrounded by their natural environments. Who is waddling by the pond? Golden-yellow ducks are passing by a blue pond, ringed by lime-green frogs, a flowery garland, and a tropical sky. Who is nibbling at the leaves--well, only a giraffe that tall! Streeeeeetch that neck as far as you can. And right near the koalas, bouncing up and down, is a kangaroo with a little baby tucked tightly in her pouch. Hens peck in the yard, near smaller fuzzy chicks, and in the branches, not too far from a butterfly, a slithering snake unfolds and wraps itself around them. Children will have tons of fun twisting and stretching and bending their bodies--while they learn animal facts and names and enjoy reading! 10 pages (all in color), 7 3/8 x 7 3/8.
