Book Reviews of Duck on a Bike
Book Review: Just Ducky!
Summary: 5 Stars
My four year old thinks it's hilarious to see Duck riding a bike and we both agree that the best page is at the end where the duck is pondering driving a tractor! We enjoy reading this together and he reads the animal parts while I narrate This is an enjoyable read aloud for kids and parents.
Book Review: Love it!
Summary: 5 Stars
We LOVE this book! The pictures are so vibrant and the repetition is just what toddlers love. It also teaches animals and their sounds. I've given this book as a gift several times.Book Review: Mom
Summary: 5 Stars
Great book. My 14month old wants this read every evening. The artwork is very nice and we are always discovering something new on the pages.Book Review: Perfect for storytime at home, school or the library
Summary: 5 Stars
As a children's librarian, I am always searching for the next perfect book to read for preschool storytime. I have read this book to several groups now and always have had an enraptured audience--both children and adults love it. Duck decides to ride a bike for the fun of it and greets the animal on the farm as he passes by. It might sound trite, but in this book, it is all magical. The full bleed illustrations are bright and colorful while the story is humorous and engaging. Don't miss the last page either. All the kids love it. This has become my favorite picture book this year and I will be disappointed if it doesn't receive a Caldecott nod. Add this one to your child's library or give it to a favorite child as a gift. Then sit down and read it together. Neither of you will be disappointed! A great companion book also out this year is "Do Like a Duck Does" by Judy Hindley.
Book Review: Read Aloud Fun
Summary: 5 Stars
Many children's books put me to sleep while I am reading the bedtime story. This, however, is one of my favorite books to read aloud. I have a great opportunity to practice dramatic voices; I can be a superior acting horse, an arrogant cat, and a worshipful mouse. The illustrations are sensational. I wish I could find more books that are this much fun.
