Splat the Cat and the Duck with No Quack is the baffling tale about a duck who, you guessed it, does not quack. Splat finds the mute ‘drake’ (what male ducks are called), while peddling on his bike to Cat School. He tries several logical things to help the duck quack, but none of his duck-minded ideas seem to help. Plank and Spike, Splat’s cat friends, offer silly suggestions to help the duck quack, until one of them winds up eating Splat’s fish sticks from his backpack. I wonder who? Splat eventually decides Mrs. Wimpydimple is their only hope. But will Mrs. Wimpydimple be able to solve the quack-less mystery and get Splat’s new feathered friend quacking like a duck again? Splat the Cat and the Duck with No Quack is quite a tongue-twister. It is loaded with plenty of “Acks!” and should Mrs. Wimpydimple succeed, hopefully a few “quacks”. One must read the book, though, in order to find out. Duck is certain to help children establish a newfound love of reading books by the last turn of the page, if they do not enjoy reading already.Splat the Cat and the Duck with No Quack is part of Harper Collins “Beginning Reading” level one books which contain short sentences, familiar words and easy concepts for children who are learning to read on their own to understand. Thirteen words ending in “ack” are listed behind the front cover. Children are encouraged to find those particular words throughout the story as they read. This technique not only aides in inspiring children to read the book, but it also gets their minds engaged in words that may sound similar, but have different meanings such as; back, lack, tack and stack for example. The illustrations in Splat the Cat and the Duck with No Quack, are very detailed, right down to the teeny, tiny furry hairs jutting out on, Splat the Cat. Each animated picture is drawn in a manner which makes the characters appear lifelike in a child’s mind. Duck’s turquoise color is eye-catching and makes him standout...besides being a duck who doesn’t quack. Turquoise was a wise color choice for this character since the story is centered around Duck and his quack-less dilemma. Duck’s memorable appearance literally has him waddling off of each page.If someone should ever ask, “Have you ever seen a turquoise colored duck?” The answer is certain to be; “Why yes, in Splat the Cat and the Duck with No Quack, of course.

I liked this children's book because it was about a duck that is found by a cat but does not quack. The cat tries to do everything it can to help the duck quack but doesn't know what to do so brings the duck to one of his friends. They try and dress up the duck but still no quack, they try and do everything but still no quack. Later, they find out the duck just needed glasses because the duck could not see. I thought this book was really cute and kids will enjoy it.

This is a great book for younger readers. The illustrations are all funny and the words are all in a big font size. The plot of the story is also very enjoyable. I really liked that the front of the book has a list of words to spot throughout the text.

When Splat finds a duck along the road with no quack, he enlists his friends and Mrs. Wimpydimple to help the duck out.

This Splat the Cat book is a little different than most of the other ones as it is often times a tongue twister to read. Very fun but often times a twister for certain! It has many "ack" words in the story along with a few "oo" words as well. So if your child is learning to read and are working on these phonics this book would be perfect for them. It also has a 'vocabulary' list at first for children to 'find the word' within the story or you could use it as actual spelling words if you are a homeschooled parent.Splat the Cat finds a lonely Duck that is silent. He thinks he's lost but when he tries to return him to his lake he's still not happy so he takes him to school. His teacher will know how to help find his quack. She does various things for him and realizes that Duck can't see; after she shares her glasses with Duck and hands Duck a book; Duck starts 'reading' with Quacks. So Splat the Cat helped Duck find his quack. Cute little book to read due to the tongue twister type story. But also because it teaches to be kind to others that maybe a little different than you. Also to ask an adult if you have a situation you can't figure out. AND that wearing glasses isn't always a bad thing!

Splat is riding his bike when he crash lands right next to a duck. When Splat realizes that the duck is not quacking, he decides to take to duck back to the pond in hopes of restoring its quack. When it seems like that's not going to work, Splat has to figure out another way to help find the duck's quack. The illustrations in the book are colorful and fit well with the story. It's a good book for kids who are starting to read on their own. The story is fun and easy to follow, and rhyming words will keep their interest. It can be used to introduce a unit about animals or introduce some rhyming sounds.

This is classified as a "Level 1 Beginning Reader - Simple sentences for eager new readers" and I completely disagree. My 4-year-old likes books that are one or two short sentences per page and this is not that kind of book. I also thought a lot of the words were not "beginner" words. For example, it starts off "Splat's bike went clickity clack as he rode along a bumpy track to Cat School. Suddenly, the wheel of the bike got stuck in a crack." I guess I expect a beginner book to be more like "The fat cat sat on the crack."That being said, my child loved this book. It's got a lot of rhyming words, the story is silly, and the illustrations are fun.

We are on a real Splat the Cat kick in our house. This is another I can read book so it was easy to read and had great rhymes. My son loved this one and loved the duck who wasn't quacking. As always the illustrations were spot on for fun. I loved this one and can't wait to read it again to my sonThis was read with my 7 year old severely learning disabled son.

What's a matter with Duck? There's no quack! Cat and his friends try to solve the mystery of the no quacking duck. The main theme of this book includes problem-solving, helping, and asking for help. I recommend this book for young readers, preschool to 1st graders. I gave this book 4/5 because it's the different strategies the Cat and his peers are attempting are hilarious.

Splat the Cat a treasure as always! Splat finds a duck on the road...a duck who has lost the power to quack. His friends try everything to bring happiness to Ducky. Then the cat-doctor figures out what's ducky about ducky. I love Splat and...I'll admit it...I'M A FAAAAAN!! More Splatiness please!!!
