Monkey and Duck Quack Up!

When Monkey sees a sign advertising a rhyming contest in which the winners will win a three-day cruise, he spends the bulk of the story attempting to talk Duck into being his partner for the contest.  Monkey suggests rhyme after rhyme to get Duck into the spirit of things, but every time it’s Duck’s turn to finish the rhyme, all he says is, “Quack.”  In the end Monkey figures out how to work with Duck to make their team a success.  Kids will  enjoy making suggestions for what Duck ought to say each time, they’ll probably predict the solution before Monkey figures it out, and they’ll enjoy the little surprise twist at the end.
