(3) K-3 Illustrated by Andrea Wesson. Otis the duck, who is something of a dreamer, dons a disguise and, by virtue of his own clumsiness and some quick talking, becomes the respected hero Jack Quack. The beautiful Violet, longing for a savior, sees through the disguise but falls in love anyway. The watercolor and pen-and-ink illustrations endow the ducks with expressive, handlike wings, which add to the story's humor.
