Wereduck

Book 1 of the Wereduck Series

by Dave Atkinson

tagged: science fiction, ducks, geese, etc.
Description

Kate's family has told her that on her thirteenth birthday she'll hear the "Whooooo" call of the moon, and howl back, and become a werewolf just like them. But she doesn't want to be a werewolf. She's always felt more like a duck. On the night of her thirteenth birthday, Kate stands near her family's cabin in the backwoods of New Brunswick and hears the moon calling—but it sounds like more of a "Whooooo?" as in "Who are you?" and Kate does what she's always wanted to do—she quacks. Quack, quack, quacks.

Her family tries to understand Kate's new full-moon form, but they are busy integrating themselves with some new, edgy werewolves in town.

Engaging, hilarious, and utterly believable, Wereduck is a thrilling addition to the were-canon.
