Book Description
for Dodsworth in Tokyo by Tim Egan
From the Publisher
With trips to New York, Paris, London, and Rome under their belts, Dodsworth and the duck head for Japan: "The plane glided over Mount Fuji. Tokyo sparkled in the distance. Dodsworth was a little nervous." Dodsworth has good reason to be nervous--the duck bumps into a rickshaw, falls into a koi pond (he can't swim), and knocks over a tray of wagashi! Readers will love the slapstick humor and the odd-couple friendship between Dodsworth and the duck. Four engaging chapters of short sentences, clean design, and gem-like little paintings of the Land of the Rising Sun make it easy for early readers to enjoy the journey.
