Hector breaks the cardinal rule of Cucumonga Campground - DO NOT FEED THE DUCKS! Then up from the depths arises …. The Quacken!  Now Hector is on the run for his life!

A little bit Gremlins, a little bit Penelope Rex (https://kissthebookjr.blogspot.com/2018/02/we-dont-eat-our-classmates-by-ryan-t.html) - and full out adorable! I would love to read this aloud over and over and over again!
