What's Up, Duck?: A Book of Opposites (Duck & Goose)

These books are so cute and great board books for littles! It’s super simple and not over stimulating with information. Explains simple opposites to get minds thinking and learning.

This book is absolutely adorable! If you've read anything else by Tad Hills, you know he has a great sense of humor and the illustrations in this book make our family laugh! They also so clearly demonstrate the opposite that my 2 year old reads this aloud to us, using the pictures as a guide. A wonderful starter book of opposites that is also really fun.

This is a great book for preschoolers. We have the other books: Duck & Goose, and Duck,Duck,Goose. The books are fun to read and the illustrations are perfect for kids.

I like this book. My girls love it and is a great way to teach opposites. It is very simple my 2 year old knows it by heart. I do add say for clean I say the "opposite" is dirty so they have that reference of the word opposite.

As a huge fan of Tad Hills and his Duck and Goose characters, WHAT'S UP, DUCK? was an absolute delight! At only twenty-two sturdy board pages, this is a perfect first reader, but it's also a great book to read with your toddler. Along with the typical opposites of up, down and slow, fast, there are also my favorites -- clean, dirty and heavy, light. The illustrations are what make this book a winner, and the absolute perfection of Duck and Goose are not to be missed. Reviewed by: Jennifer Wardrip, aka "The Genius"

This colorful boardbook uses some charming drawings of four birds to illustrate the concept of opposites. There is a yellow duck, a gray duck, a blue songbird and a white goose. The words for the opposites are on each page. Each scene shows the birds outside in the grass, doing opposite actions: * First they stand forward, then backward. * The gray duck screams while the blue bird whispers. * The gray duck leaps for joy while the goose sheds a tear. * The goose is close, the yellow duck stands far away. * The yellow duck walks slowly while the gray runs quickly. * The goose is clean, the yellow duck is muddy. * The yellow duck barely lifts the heavy goose while the gray duck balances a light feather. * The yellow duck has a butterfly on its head while the goose looks at one down on the ground. * Finally, the goose is awake while the other three birds sleep.
