review 1: This book has a great concept but I found it was poorly executed by the illustrations. There was the chance for a lot of humor but I found the pictures to be a little crude. Moose was only shown in one light over and over again. I did enjoy the end where the ducks find out that their actions were not the best. But even then, the moral of the story is lost in the one page that relied too much on the illustration to capture the meaning.
review 2: This book is either going to be storytime gold or a somewhat lackluster flop, depending on the crowd and how animated you are when reading it. It contains only two words throughout the entire book, "Duck" and "Moose". The ducks in the story are very prim and proper, whereas the moose is entirely too clumsy for his own ... moregood. In order for this book to work in storytime, children will need to analyze the illustrations. What are the ducks doing in each spread? This is an excellent practice for children, but if your crowd skews to the young or the shy side, it may not work well. After the kids have determined what's happening in each spread you can read, "Duck...Duck...Duck...Duck...MOOSE!" and turn the page to see moose's hilarious antics. (January 25, 2014) less
