Description
A spooky and kooky tale about a lonely duck and his unexpected new friend--now in an 8 x 8 trim size and paperback
Told in rollicking rhyme, this picture book introduces Quackenstein, a lonely duck in his "lair" at the zoo. One day, Quack is inspired to adopt an egg from the nursery and--much like his inspiration, Dr. Frankenstein--he's shocked by what emerges from the egg. The "monster" chases him throughout the zoo in a fast-paced and funny parody of monster movies. In the twist ending, the monster (actually an adorable platypus) and Quack resolve their differences and settle down as a not-so-spooky family.
