My two year old granddaughter loves this series. The board books are a little young for her but this book has become a favorite, perhaps, in part, because she too loves the beach. The pictures are wonderful as is the journey these two friends make over hill and dale until they reach the beach. One is cautious and the other adventuresome so they make a good pair.
My grandson lives near a Texas beach. I knew this book needed to be in his library. Tad Hills has become a trusted author for our family. We know our grandson will be drawn by the artwork, characters and storyline. Those birds are such good friends!
Sweet book. I bought it for my three and a half year old grandson but that was a mistake. He is already into avengers and Star Wars and this didn't interest him. I gave it to a friend who has a two year old daughter and she chooses it every night for her bedtime book.
I just love the Duck and Goose books for my grand children. They are enthralled with the bright colors and the simple story. Somehow, Duck and Goose always find the answer to a problem by the end of the book! A great little book
I got this book for my 2-year-old daughter in preparation for our family vacation to Hawaii, which was her first time going to the beach. This book introduced the concept of not only the beach but also going on a trip away from home, and it got her very excited about seeing new things and having new experiences before our trip. She memorized the whole book word-for-word within days, and she recited it constantly while we were in Hawaii.This book also convinced my daughter to wear a sun hat! She had always hated wearing hats, but I pointed out that Duck and Goose both wear hats on their adventure, and now she begs to wear her sun hat, which she calls her "Duck and Goose hat".My only gripe with this book is that Duck and Goose are both boys. The Duck and Goose board books are all gender neutral with no gender-specific pronouns, which I really appreciate, as I like my daughter to read books featuring both boys and girls. Since Duck and Goose are her favorite book characters, I have always read them with Duck being a girl and Goose a boy. In "Duck and Goose Go to the Beach", I had to change the pronouns to make Duck a girl. Not a big deal, but I had always thought that Duck and Goose were purposefully written so they could be any gender.Also, I'll add that I really like reading this book. Anytime my daughter gets a new book, she demands that I read it dozens of times a day, over and over until she memorizes it, which is usually extremely tedious and sets my teeth on edge. But this book is actually really fun to read, and I don't get tired of it nearly as much as with other books.
We love Tad Hills Duck and Goose books. We have all the books...board books and hard covers. My kids love these characters and we think they're pretty cute and don't mind reading these books repeatedly to young kids. He's a great writer and illustrator.
My 1 year old absolutely loves these duck and goose books! Its great that they are board books so she can't rip them. She crawls right up to them when they are on the floor and starts laughing and smiling right away
This book was so fun to read and my daughter and students flip through the pages constantly. We were able to make sand and talk about the beach on a snowy day. And of course all of us Mommies were day dreaming of going on our own adventure to get there! Tad Hill does a fabulous job of giving great vocabulary to his books as well as beautiful illustrations! My classes and clients love talking about Duck and Goose and I use a plethora of these books in class.
