Just when he thinks he finds the perfect spot, he can't stay. Not wanting to cause a problem, he goes further up the pond, only to discover, home is the best place to relax.

This is a cute picture book.  Theme:  differences/ uniqueness.  Book is geared toward 5-8 year olds.  Illustrations are bold and bright.  I felt sorry for Milton as others wouldn't let him play because he was in there territory.  He was welcome and accepted and comfortable at home.
