APPEALS TO: MANY

Duck had many bad things happen to him, and he thought that he had no luck.  He decided to travel to see Wise Owl to find out why?  Duck took the wrong path.  On the way, he met Fox who's tummy hurt, Tree who couldn't grow leaves, and Swan who was lonely.  He agreed to ask Wise Owl about their problems as well.   Just when he thought he was lost, he luckily found Wise Owl.  She told him what the other creatures needed and  to go back the way he came and he would find his luck.  Will Duck help the others and find his own luck?

The Duck With No Luck humorously teaches the reader about the ups and downs of life, and to have a more positive attitude.  Very cute illustrations help us love the characters.
