Odd Duck by Cecil Castellucci & Sara Varon
Theodora
is a tidy duck who always follows her daily routine. While her choices
may be strange for most ducks (she quilts and swims with a tea cup on
her head), everything in her life fits perfectly in its' place...that is
until a neighbor comes along. Chad is bizarre. He dyes his feathers and
makes strange sculptures in the yard. Theodora is certain the two will
never be friends but as it often happens in books for young readers,
she's quickly proven wrong. Though a common story, Castellucci and Varon
bring their own fun flavor. Odd Duck is filled with sweet and quirky
characters children are sure to love. Perfect for an early reader
audience, Odd Duck is also a great read-aloud selection for non-readers
who can sit through a long story but still want lots of pictures.
Hopefully we'll see more books from this quirky duo.
