Lulu and the Duck in the Park

(1) 1-3 Illustrated by Priscilla Lamont. Bringing outside animals into Lulu's class is verboten. But when Class Three witnesses two dogs destroy ducks' nests, Lulu keeps the remaining egg safe, and it begins to hatch--while at school. Animal-loving Lulu's dilemma rings true, and no-nonsense Mrs. Holiday's speech is humorously natural. Though all ends well in this fine beginning chapter book, gratifyingly the resolution is not pat.
