There are two editions of Duck in the Truck - Paperback and Board Book. We apologize for any confusion.

"A deliciously percussive rhyming story of a feathered truck driver who becomes mired in muck and the three animal Good Samaritans who try and help him...A quacking good read-aloud." - Publishers Weekly --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

"The mud may be sticky in this piece of rhymed tomfoolery from Alborough, but the wordplay is clear and washed... A tale that is sweet, funny, and messy - three attributes with which any child can identify combines with sprightly verse and inviting illustrations to make Alborough's latest a thorough success." - Kirkus Reviews --This text refers to the Hardback edition.

"This is a beautiful board book; the colors are vibrant. The red truck and the brown mud glisten, and the greens in the countryside make for a picturesque background throughout the book. The rhyming text and theme of teamwork and perseverance make this a wonderful book for children."- Curled Up Kids

"This delightful book is the perfect addition to any early childhood classroom." - Oneota Reading Journal

"This rollicking rhyming tale is a satisfying read full of delicious wordplay and silliness from start to finish. Children love the percussive sound of the language and duck’s sticky problem." - Pixie Stix Kids Pix
