Book Reviews of 10 Little Rubber Ducks
Book Review: A future classic
Summary: 5 Stars
I read this book to children aged 3 and 5 and both they and I could not wait to turn the next page! A great adventure from start to finish. The illustrations are beautiful and the sound effect is an inspired idea. As a huge fan of The Very Hungry Caterpillar I had high hopes for this book. It does not disappoint. If you want an easy way to practice counting from one to ten - this is the book for you. This story makes bedtime fun. Buy a rubber duckie of your own and make bath time even more fun!Book Review: Equals the Hungry Caterpillar
Summary: 5 Stars
Ten little rubber ducks are made in a factory, have their eyes and beaks painted on and then are loaded into a box and onto a ship. They each fall overboard to meet a different animal, from various watery habitats, and then the final one joins a family of real ducks and you can press him at the end for a great quacking noise, which of course children absolutely love. It's a gently appealing story about rubber ducks bobbing around the world, based on a true story, and it also includes numbers, animals from different parts of the globe and the noisy feature at the back. Eric Carle's illustrations are always colourful and refreshingly distinctive and the stories are generally pretty good. His classic, The Hungry Caterpillar, is a hard book to equal - however, I think this has just about done it. Definitely worth adding to your book shelf and a great present for a small child.
Book Review: After the Hungry Caterpillar another beautiful book
Summary: 5 Stars
I grew up reading The Hungry Caterpillar and was so interested to see 10 Rubber Ducks. It is a gorgeous book, beautifully constructed, I bought it for a friend's little girl but secretly wanted to keep it for myself. I know she will grow to love it as much as the caterpillar! Please check it out you must see how lovely it is and such a simple story.Book Review: Good Fun
Summary: 4 Stars
This book was given to us and I'm very glad it was. It is a super read. My only complaint is that to make the duck squeak you have to press very hard. So much so that my daughter became tired of trying to make the duck talk and with that her interest in the book wained a bit. Regardless, this will become a classic and it remains a popular book in our house if not a favorite.
