Dodsworth in Tokyo, by Tim Egan

(Paperback, 48 pages, first published in 2013)

Dodsworth and the duck are headed for Japan! But will duck be on his best behavior in a land of customs, manners, and order? Or will Dodsworth have to say sayonara to the duck before the trip is through? Readers will enjoy finding out as these two unlikely traveling companions make their way through Tokyo.

Short sentences, clean design, and gem-like little paintings of the Land of the Rising Sun make it easy for newly independent readers to enjoy the journey.
