Horn Book (Mon Apr 01 00:00:00 CST 1996)

In this board-book edition of a successful picture book for the very young--about a mother duck's search for her peripatetic duckling--Tafuri's illustrations are as strong and well composed as ever. However, the shrinking of the page size means that the missing duckling, always partly concealed but visible on each double-page spread, is extremely difficult to find.

“As fresh as spring.”—The Horn Book

“Children will return to this one again and again . . . a reassuring story of youthful independence and familial love.”—School Library Journal, starred review

“[Nancy Tafuri] always manages to flavor her splendid pictures with humor and interesting detail.”—The New York Times Book Review

Acclaimed author Nancy Tafuri hides the little duck somewhere on each page—have YOU seen it? This almost-wordless book is both a fun counting game and an exciting hidden-picture hunt for the youngest readers.
