Book Reviews of 10 Little Rubber DucksBook Review: A minor hit at home Summary: 3 StarsNot as good as some of the Eric Carle classics; I can't see it being read as much as "The Hungry Caterpillar" in our house but it's still a good bedtime story standby.
Book Review: 10 Little Rubber Ducks Summary: 5 StarsI purchased this book for my three year old grandson. He loved it! We read it several times together and he giggled and had a wonderful time looking at the wonderful pictures. Another Eric Carle master piece!!!
Book Review: Wonderful story Summary: 5 StarsThis book is simply a delight! I bought it for my granddaughter who is 9 months. She loves for me to read it to her. We just love it!!
Book Review: The story behind the story is more interesting Summary: 2 StarsThis book is simply not that great. The rubber ducky sound at the end is cute but nothing to applaud. The art is borderline awful and, while the story behind the story is cute, it just did not come out great as a children's book. I must confess, I am not an Eric Carle fan though, with the exception of The Very Busy Spider, which I enjoyed. To put it simply, don't bother. The two redeeming qualities of this book are 1) it teaches counting well (the first rubber duck, the second rubber duck) and it exposes the kids to animals you do not see every day (octupus, flamingo, pelican).
Book Review: Excellent Book for Emergent Readers Summary: 5 StarsAs an Early Childhood professional I am always looking for goods books rich in language, story and pictures. This book is one of Eric Carle's best books. I am a teacher/owner of Oceanside Pre-Kindergarten a unique Literacy based program to help children prepare for Kindergarten in today's intense learning environment in formal education.
I purchased this because the theme related to my school.
Ten Rubber Ducks ia an Award Winning book that is rich in language, includes math, beautiful art work and based on a true story with a big surprise for the children at the end of the story - the rubber duck squeaks.
I allow children to borrow my books and this one everyone wanted to take home over and over again. I have purchased another for a friend whom borrowed it and her four children loved it.
It is truly a book I will purchase as a gift for children on my gift list. I love to see a child's face light up and smile to a good story and Eric Carle can tell a story with both words and pictures to delight us all.
