Mrs. Macker's Quacker by Ruth Gomah


Mrs.  Macker lived alone.  She took a duck into the house and made him a pet.  Pluck wanted to sing and dance, but Mrs. Macker didn't like that.  She didn't want him to draw attention.  But he was tired of being called Mrs.Macker's Quacker.  She told him to leave.

Creative Pursuits Publishing and Net Galley let me read this book for review (thank you).  You can get a copy now, it has been published.

Pluck gathers his goods and heads out early the next morning.  Mrs. Macker is glad but she doesn't stay that way.  Soon thieves make their way in and steal everything in sight.  Pluck made a good watchdog but he wasn't there any more.

Pluck is now the act that draws people to the circus he's joined.  When Mrs. Macke finds him and invites him back to her home, does he go?  Read it and see.
