Description
Brilliant hues, simple shapes, and a splashy pop-out surprise draw the youngest of readers to this clever concept book about actions and their opposites.
Why raising readers Has Selected This Book
The Selection Committee chose this title because Duckie's pairing with other animals allows readers to explore opposites. The bright, bold images make the action easy to follow. The committee felt that the surprise at the end would make children ask that the book be read to them again and again.
