10 Little Rubber Ducks Board Book

The venerable Eric Carle based his latest children's book on a 2003 news report about the true adventures of a 1992 shipment of bathtub toys lost overboard from a container ship. From this true-life kids story, he has created a charming counting book about rubber ducks. Youngsters can watch rubber ducks created, painted, packed, and shipped. When a storm sets them free, one-by-one they set off for their personal voyages. A dolphin, a seal, a polar bear, and a pelican—creatures of the sea and sky colorfully interact with the ducks. All ducks float on. Until the tenth—he has the fortune to find a real duck family. As they settle in for the night, quacks and a final squeak suggest the comfort of a home found. The battery-operated squeaker on the last page can be pressed by little fingers, and when they press it too often, its battery, hidden in the binding, may be replaced. Carle's narrative is simple, but his melange of collage and vivid acrylic strokes is as evocative as ever. This children's book is for kids reading levels ages 3-6. Leave us your comments.
