"Can I Join Your Club? belongs in schools, counselor offices, pediatrician offices, and anywhere else young kids can find themselves turned away by peers or looking for help. Children can find a hero in Duck who fought the exclusive clubs with a club of his own. In the end, inclusiveness wins, as does friendship, and positive personal growth. It is amazing how much a book with so few words can resonate with so many people.
