Quack!

(4) PS Illustrated by Adrienne Yorinks. A duck, Quack, visits the moon, but his animal friends miss him and vice versa, so he parachutes back to earth. The story, told almost entirely with the word "quack," is limp, but the point is well taken that children can interpret narrative from vocal inflection and images. The book's hallmark is its fabric-collage illustrations.
