Daffy Duck For President

While lobbying for a year-long open season on rabbits, Daffy Duck discovers how the constitutional system of checks and balances protects democracy in the United States.

From the New York Times bestselling creators of Click, Clack, Moo, comes an entertaning introduction to politics. My fellow Americans: It is our pleasure, our honor, our duty as citizens to present to you Duck for President. Here is a duck who began in a humble pond. Who worked his way to farmer. To governor. And now, perhaps, to the highest office in the land. Some say, if he walks like a duck and talks like a duck, he is a duck. We say, if he walks like a duck and talks like a duck, he will be the next president of the United States of America. Thank you for your vote.

About Junkins’ novel Orchards of Almonds: “Don Junkins’ semi-autobiographical novel, Orchards of Almonds, blossoms with a Camelot-studded cast of characters that includes Kennedys alive and dead, LBJ and company, Reagan, and dozens of California politicos, academics, Viet Nam protesters and movie stars. . . . Junkins—as much the poet in design as in language—has achieved another triumph of deftness, irony and grace.” Allen Josephs (On Hemingway and Spain) “I was bowled over by Puss. I have never read, in any other literary work, such a profoundly pure and honest and dead-on rendering of the young girl. And that coupled with her extraordinary father/daughter relationship, it moved me deeply. He did for that relationship what Hemingway did for father and son in ‘Indian Camp.’” Linda Miller (Letters from the Lost Generation: Gerald and Sara Murphy and Friends)

When a great country has been turned upside by a dangerous duck, it’s important to let everyone know about the danger and about what can be done. That duck shouldn’t be anyone’s role model! Danger Duck presents an epic takedown of Donald Trump in the form of a children’s poem. It sends a vital message to all about the perils of ignorance, greed, and hatred. The Trump administration and those who could potentially follow it are a danger to humanity if the current trajectory remains unaltered. Citizens, politicians, and children must realize that the behavior of this president is not acceptable and that a path of love and compassion is a better path for the world. After all, peace on this earth is a truth that is free. This illustrated verse seeks to reveal Donald Trump for the dangerous cartoon character that he is and encourages readers to be aware of the danger he represents.
