Duckie's Rainbow
PreS–Duckie is hurrying home to her nest. On the way she encounters a field of red poppies, an orange bridge, yellow corn, and more. This deceptively simple, fan-shaped concept book is wonderfully creative. Each spread adds its color to an arc at the top of the page; at the end, Duckie sees a beautiful rainbow. The pages are graduated so that when opened the book is a half-circle showing the rings of color. The collage art is basic and the hues are bright. Duckie will appeal to preschoolers, especially toddlers, and be a great addition to storytimes.–Elaine Lesh Morgan, Multnomah County Library, Portland, ORCopyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
