My daughter got this book as a gift for her second birthday a few days ago and she already loves it. She asks me to read it over and over. It is nice when you have to read a book over and over to find something you like too. Good plot and cute illustrations too.
A sweet, beautiful book

"Duck and Goose" is the rare kid's book that teaches a much-needed lesson with humor and intelligence (when was the last time you laughed out loud when reading a book meant for toddlers??) . Its simple story never gets preachy or moralistic; instead, Hills lets the characters work out their sharing problems amongst themselves in a natural, kid-like way. The illustrations are vibrant, colorful, and very engaging. "Duck and Goose" should have a place on every child's bookshelf!
Sweet bedtime reading

What a wonderful, simple, splendid book! The art work is fabulous! And the characters express the same phrases, expressions, and feelings that toddlers do. Very sweet!
