At Cucumonga Campground, Hector sees only adorable ducks, ignoring the legend of a creature that devours everything. But when he feeds the ducks, he unleashes the Quacken. What havoc will it wreak?
From the publisher
Surrey Schools’ Picture Book of the Year 2025-2026 Nominee Fans of The Bad Seed and Creepy Carrots will flock to this hilarious, lightly spooky picture book about a boy who unwittingly unleashes a ferociously fuzzy beast on his campground! Lurking in the lake at Cucumonga Campground is a fearsome and frightening creature. Legend says that it swallows kids, canoes, and even whales whole. But all Hector sees are cute, cuddly, quacking ducks. Until he breaks the campground’s most important rule–Don’t Feed the Ducks–and releases…the Quacken.
