Bookroo's summary
In the dead of night, a fox sneaks into the henhouse, hoping for a chicken dinner. Instead, he captures a cunning duck with a plan. This duck, quick-witted and sly, aims to convince the fox that he's not a duck at all, but a dog. As the fox grapples with this unexpected twist, readers are taken on a delightful journey of wit and humor. Will the fox see through the duck's ruse, or will the duck's clever disguise save the day? Discover the surprising outcome in this charming tale of deception and survival.
From the publisher
“A ‘quacker-jack’ addition to a duck- or fox-themed storytime.” –BCCB “Large word bubbles make reading easy…Don’t be outfoxed. Get quacking and buy this book.” –School Library Journal Quack, quack–woof? A quick-thinking duck keeps a fox on his toes in this witty romp from a New Yorker cartoonist. One dark night in the henhouse, a hungry fox in search of his dinner gets more than he bargains for. Instead of a chicken, Fox grabs a duck. A very smart duck. A duck so sly, he plans to convince Fox that he isn’t a duck but a–dog! Yes, a dog. This clever story and its accompanying visual narrative will delight readers young and old–because if it looks like a duck, and it quacks like a duck, it HAS to be a duck…right?
