Dear Duck, Please Come!

by Sarah Mackenzie
illustrated by Charles Santoso

“A sweet, funny story. . . great for fans of A.A. Milne’s Winnie the Pooh.”

Kirkus Reviews

A lighthearted romp through Piney Glen with a band of friends who learn that friendship isn’t about fixing each other’s problems but about being there for each other.

On the other side of the old wooden bridge, deep in Piney Glen, Duck opens his mailbox to find a letter from Rabbit:

Dear Duck,
Please come! I lost my tooth.

Duck sets out to find that tooth—it’s a good-friend thing to do, after all. Along the way, he enlists help from Badger, Turtle, Squirrel, and Mouse.

Can they be the kind of friends Rabbit most needs?
