Have You Seen Duck?

24 pp. | Scholastic/Cartwheel | February, 2011 | Trade ISBN 978-0-545-22488-8 $8.99
(4) PS Illustrated by Jonathan Bentley. A little boy basks in his stuffed animal's admiration ("I'm Duck's hero"). When Duck goes missing, the child realizes how much he needs and admires Duck. The pictures are both spare and expressive, but they provide no foreshadowing for the toy's whereabouts; and although the ending is nicely circular ("Duck's my hero"), it's also a bit forced.
