Quackers

"No?"

- D.W. Read

Quackers is a toy D.W. gets from Santa Claus instead of Tina the Talking Tabby in Arthur's Perfect Christmas. It is a plush toy duck that sings when you squeeze its belly. It could also say a number of phrases, over 5,000 in all, but it couldn't say "meow." It is possible that the singing mechanism is separate from the talking mechanism, as D.W. was able to make him sing at will. His outfit has a sailor theme.

D.W. really wanted Tina, but came to accept Quackers as being "kinda cute." She later declared that Santa knew she would like Quackers much better than Tina.

The toy's singing was recorded by Sonja Ball.
