This is a cute book. There is a story about the protection of a momma duck, and there are some cute sounds and waddling opportunities for interaction. It can be used for story time.

This is a rhyming story in which a mama duck discovers a stranger in the midst of her duckling pretending to be a duck. On the one hand, the story does have a nice rhythm and is fun to read aloud. On the other hand, it totally has a conformity message, which I'm not big on.

Mama Duck has a good hunch that the big brown creature waddling behind her babies is no duck! As the foxy impostor sneaks closer and closer to Mama Duck’s trailing brood, little ones will delight in shouting out his identity. Infectious rhythms and fresh, expressive watercolors liven up the pursuit, which ends when Mama Duck confronts the villain, beak to snout, and beats him at his own game.

Rhyming text about a fox trying to trick the duck family into thinking he's one of them. Silly and fun with fabulous illustrations, this makes a great read aloud!

I love it when my "quick grabs" at the library become favorite reads. The clever mother duck wind my heart and the kids love to laugh at the silly not-so-sly fox.

I read this to the two Head Start classes through the library program I volunteer for. Great illustrations and concept but the "like" instead of "as" chafes.
