Logan and the Duck Patrol stand ready to feed the ducks anytime Mr. Johnson needs them. Logan feels good because now he knows that although he's too young for lots of things he'd like to do, he is never too young to help people - or ducks. Although the plot is simple, the book communicates subtly at several levels. It celebrates that special bond between grammas and grandchildren. Adults don't tire of reading it over and over.
Librarians love it.
