Ducks in Muck: 03/05/07
Ducks in Muck is another from the set of books we got from herebedragons at the February BookCrossing meeting. It is designed for beginning readers so is perfect for Sean right now. Like many early reader books, Ducks in Muck uses short rhyming words and very little punctuation to tell its story of some ducks, some trucks and a big puddle of muck. Ducks in Muck reminds of the Sheep series (Sheep in a Jeep, et al ) by Nancy Shaw and Margot Apple. Both place animals in unusual situations for the sake of rhyme but do pay off with cute, albeit simplistic, punchlines. Comments (0) |
