The Perfect Present by Fiona Roberton –ADVISABLE


Roberton, Fiona The perfect present 32 pgs. Putnam Juvenile, 2012. $13.25 (Rating: G)
This is a follow up to the book Wanted a Perfect Pet. Spot the duck and Henry are the best of friends. But when Henry ignores Spot’s perfect birthday present, but one that is much more exciting, well Spot is upset. He runs away, feeling sorry for himself, and learns a lesson about true friendship.
I really liked both the first book and this follow up. They are simple, adorable, and full of heart. Students will love the clear images and clear message. Spot the duck is a great character!
