review 1: Adorable and so funny. A spin on the ugly duckling story, this is spoken in "moose," which has been known to "scrumble up the human brain."A little bit about how this poor little moose is treated for being different: Mommy ducky to her "uglified ducky": "'You would think,' say Mrs. Ducky, 'being so uglified, you would try a little harder!'"Funny: Mommy ducky takes her uglified ducky to Dr. "Quack." Hahaha. He notices that this little moose has "four foots" and asks her if she has any other cases of quadapedagogy in her "fambly." The dr. gives him a sign that says "quack" (since he can't quack), and "bandridges" his head so his antlers won't grow.
review 2: Picture Book Log: Tumblebook #2Review Source: LOVThis story is a twist on the original story about an ... moreugly duckling, except this time the duckling is not a duckling at all but a moose! This story is full of giggles and will be sure to put a smile on every students face.I thought that this book was really funny. The way that it tried to make a moose into a duck was very original! I really enjoyed all of the animations that went along with the story, these animated books really got my attention. One of the features that I liked most about this story was that when it had a word that was a little difficult, it would stop the story and tell the students what the definition of the word was. This is very helpful! It can teach the students about context clues and can test their vocabulary knowledge. Context clues are a big thing that everyone needs to know how to use, there are many times when reading you come across an unfamiliar word. Using the pause button this story would be a great lesson on how, where, and when to use context clues. less
