PreS-KâThat rollicking and adorable quintet of ducks is back in a new seasonal adventureâcamping. All of the excitement of living out of doorsâpitching tents, fishing, toasting marshmallowsâand some of its apprehensionsâfrightening night noisesâare conveyed in bouncy, rhyming text paired with bright, cheerful watercolor illustrations. Young children will delight in the ducks' adventures and mishaps while following the antics of one tag-along squirrel from page to page and absorbing subtle counting and color lessons. Stylish jacket design visually connects this title to its predecessors, Duck Skates (2005) and Duck Dunks (2008, both Holt). Pitch-perfect, it will leave children and adults looking forward to more escapades from these endearing ducks.âKathleen Finn, St. Francis Xavier School, Winooski, VT
