Henry has the Perfect Pet - a duck called Spot - who thinks he's found the Perfect Present for Henry's Birthday.
But when the big day arrives, Henry's grandparents arrive with a Perfect Present of their own - a strange and wobbling box - with something inside that could change things between Spot and Henry forever...
This is a beautifully written story about a boy and his animal best friend and how the special bond that exists between these friends remains even when a new friend is introduced into the picture.
The story can teach young children about acceptance, feelings and about being brave when the friends you care about are in trouble.
