A new star was discovered today. It's called School Library Journal, and joins Kirkus, PW, and The Horn Book in the ever brighter constellation of the Duck.
A
small green duck has lost his new blue socks. He looks for them in his
toy box and consults his friends the fox and the ox. He does not find
them among other socks on the rocks, but his peacock friends help him
find them. The short, repetitive rhyming sentences
are a good fit for beginning readers, and the large trim size allows
plenty of space for the watercolor and [pen] illustrations to provide
clues to solve the humorous mystery. This is a whimsical delight for
children whose parents clamor for phonics-based
books.–Laura Scott, Farmington Community Library, MI
Wow, so great! Congrats, Sergio and Ms. Bunting! Can't wait to see it.
