Review

Like the previous Peep and Ducky board books this is a title that has just the right toddler feel. The story is simple yet familiar to little ones who meet friends and family in the park. Martin's text describes the actions of the bird and duck while Walker's illustrations focus on the energy and humor for the target audience. Parents and care givers may not appreciate the mud action but it is certain to be the favorite page for youngsters.

Bright and cheerful while not being over powering the color palate for this book is perfect. Librarians and day care providers will want to add it to their board book collections. Parents and relatives of newborns will find Peep and Ducky books make excellent baby gifts.

Overall Book Score: very good
