Monkey and Duck Quack Up!

Jennifer Hamburg, illustrated by Edwin Fotheringham

Monkey hopes to win a three-day cruise by entering a rhyming contest with Duck. The friends have sharply different approaches: Monkey launches into strings of rhymes, while Duck repeatedly answers “Quack!” Frustrated at first, Monkey works out how Duck’s one-word contribution can become part of their act. Their contest performance gives Duck an unexpected chance to shine.
