5 out 5

This brilliantly illustrated, amusingly observed tale of Mallards on the move has won the hearts of generations of readers. Awarded the Caldecott Medal for the most distinguished American picture book for children in 1941, it has since become a favourite of millions. This classic tale of the famous Mallard ducks of Boston is available for the first time in a full-sized paperback edition. Make Way for Ducklings has been described as ""one of the merriest picture books ever"" (The New York Times). Ideal for reading aloud, this book deserves a place of honor on every child’s bookshelf.

I thought I should help others well. Like Michael, who helped the ducks pass the road well.
