"Three friends, Duck, Squirrel and Cat, join together everyevening to make pumpkin soup. Each has their own very importantpart to play in the process and the soup is always delicious. Then,one day, Duck decides he wants to stir the soup instead of addingthe salt. This leads to a tremendous quarrel which ends with Duckleaving in a huff. At first Squirrel and Cat are unconcerned by hisabsence, but as time goes by they start to worry about what mighthave happened to their friend. This is a witty, observant andhighly original tale about the ups and downs of friendship byaward-winning author-illustrator Helen Cooper. As in The Bear Underthe Stairs and The Baby Who Wouldn't Go to Bed, Helen Cooper hascreated a magical picture book from a familiar childhoodoccurrence."
