Book Description
Little siblings of Duck and Goose fans rejoice! The stars of the bestselling Duck & Goose and Duck, Duck, Goose return in this board book for preschoolers, this time, to introduce basic opposites. In this ALA-ALSC Notable Children's Book, Goose carries an oh-so-heavy log, while duck easily balances a light-as-a-feather feather. Thistle is one fast bird, but Goose is slooo-w. And when Duck is sound asleep, Goose is wide awake. With a simple text and colorful illustrations–plus the inimitable characters, of course–here’s a wonderful, and humorous, introduction to an important concept.

This review is from: What's Up, Duck?: A Book of Opposites (Board book)
As a huge fan of Tad Hills and his Duck and Goose characters, WHAT'S UP, DUCK? was an absolute delight!At only twenty-two sturdy board pages, this is a perfect first reader, but it's also a great book to read with your toddler. Along with the typical opposites of up, down and slow, fast, there are also my favorites -- clean, dirty and heavy, light. The illustrations are what make this book a winner, and the absolute perfection of Duck and Goose are not to be missed. Reviewed by: Jennifer Wardrip, aka "The Genius"

This review is from: What's Up, Duck?: A Book of Opposites (Board book)
This colorful boardbook uses some charming drawings of four birds to illustrate the concept of opposites. There is a yellow duck, a gray duck, a blue songbird and a white goose. The words for the opposites are on each page.Each scene shows the birds outside in the grass, doing opposite actions: * First they stand forward, then backward. * The gray duck screams while the blue bird whispers. * The gray duck leaps for joy while the goose sheds a tear. * The goose is close, the yellow duck stands far away. * The yellow duck walks slowly while the gray runs quickly. * The goose is clean, the yellow duck is muddy. * The yellow duck barely lifts the heavy goose while the gray duck balances a light feather. * The yellow duck has a butterfly on its head while the goose looks at one down on the ground. * Finally, the goose is awake while the other three birds sleep. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful

This book is absolutely adorable! If you've read anything else by Tad Hills, you know he has a great sense of humor and the illustrations in this book make our family laugh! They also so clearly demonstrate the opposite that my 2 year old reads this aloud to us, using the pictures as a guide. A wonderful starter book of opposites that is also really fun.

Our duaghter loves the duck and goose books. This is a good one but not the best one - go for the feelings book. This is probably the 2nd best one of the series.
