Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"A lovely choice, whether at bedtime or storytime."
-- Booklist "A bunch of animals joyfully calling out their animal sounds are caught off guard when Duck says 'meow.' ... Bright, simple drawings with whimsical details add to the light humor."
-- The Horn Book Herald "The animal characters burst from the pages with lively, cheeky personalities, and endearing Duck's qualities come through in the adorable, thick-lined illustrations. The conclusion is satisfying, and the book's theme of inclusion makes it a lovely selection to bring to the attention of adoptive families."
-- Kirkus Reviews "HILARIOUS! Kids will absolutely love chiming in with this absolutely brilliant rhyming read aloud."
-- Picture Book Recommendations "This darling book is written with rhyme and has a lot of playful onomatopoeias. It is full of humor and is a perfect read-aloud."
-- Jamie Bills "[J]ust right for toddlers and young preschoolers who are learning how rhymes work and can appreciate the twists of the story. A strong purchase for storytime as well as general library collections."
-- Jean Little Library "Flying off my bookshelf" "With its high contrast illustrations and plentiful opportunities for audience noise-making, this book would be a good choice for a read aloud."
-- Youth Services Book Review "This book will delight the youngest listeners at storytimes with its animal noises and funny familial twist. It also imparts a complex message in an easily-understood way. The themes about identity and family will resonate strongly with children who are adopted or who otherwise feel out of place."
-- Children's Literature Comprehensive Database "This fun read is a playful way to explore adoption, celebrating the unexpected and unique bonds that make a family."
-- Read With a Rescue "Simple, humorous, and quirky, this short picture story by Juliette MacIver is packed with family and friendship. Aside from the duck's strange antics, your kiddo will get a real kick out of all the different animals included, from the wren to the snake."
-- Nanny Miss Monique "Rhyming, onomatopoeia, and an adorable cast of animals make Duck Goes Meow a storytime essential. ... Colorful, bold illustrations make this an excellent choice for younger learners."
--Mom Read It "We love this playful book because... ...all of the onomatopoeias make it a wonderful read aloud ... ...the surprise ending makes us smile:
