Children's Festival of Reading: Tad Hills

Duck and Goose learn to work together to take care of a ball, which they think is an egg.

"Duck wants to go on an adventure. Goose doesn't. He doesn't see the point. After all, why would they go anywhere when they're happy right where they are? But then Goose sees the ocean and loves it. Who doesn't? Well, Duck, for one"--

PRESCHOOLERS WILL CHEER the return of Duck and Goose! All the favorite characters, including Bluebird and Thistle, return—this time to introduce basic counting concepts.
One goose. Two ducks. Three friends. As the characters illustrate from numbers 1 to 10, children will love to follow along with the simple text and all-new original art.
Easter egg-colored art makes this the perfect Easter gift for young children everywhere!

Friends Duck and Goose experience many emotions, from sadness and anger to pride and frustration.

A little yellow bird teaches Rocket the dog how to read by first introducing him to the "wondrous, mighty, gorgeous alphabet."

Rocket the dog, Bella the squirrel, Owl, and other friends discover the alphabet, from acorns and an angry alligator to a zig zag drawn by the Little Yellow Bird.

Rocket is busy collecting one hundred things to celebrate the one hundreth day of school and has the perfect place to keep them safe until Bella, a squirrel who loves acorns, gets involved.

"Rocket loves chasing butterflies, but when one flies into the dark forest, will Rocket follow?" --Page [4] of cover.
