Nobody's Duck (2021)

There's a duck on Alligator's lawn, and Alligator isn't happy about it. Worse, when Alligator tries to get Duck to go away, the bird says they're nobody's duck. But how can that be? Surely, this is someone's duck. Starting to grow impatient, Alligator sets off to find whoever is responsible for this quacky individual. From the library to theater, to the race track, to a leap from an airplane, Alligator and Duck search all over town. Will they ever find out whose duck this is? And will some of Duck's sunny attitude rub off on Alligator along the way? Whatever happens, one thing is sure: This duck knows how to have a good time. A silly adventure about being uptight, learning to let go, and grasping the idea of friendship, Nobody's Duck shows us that sometimes the thing we're looking for has been right in front of us all along. Written and illustrated by Geisel Honor winner Mary Sullivan, Nobody's Duck is published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company.
