Customer Reviews

Love a Duck!

My three year old granddaughter loves these books. I bought her this one first and she wanted it read over and over. The next time I visited with another Katy Duck book, she actually squealed with delight! I have two more waiting for her visits. Can't wait to share them. Linda O'Brien

Katy Duck

Katy Duck doll is a perfect accessory to go with the "Katy Duck" books. My 3 year old granddaughter loves having the "star" of the books as her imaginary playmate. Katy is soft and cuddly -- just the right size to sit on a lap and enjoy reading the books together or to carry around for play.

Cute book for older than 1 1 1/2 yr olds

My daughter Katie is bored with this book but she is only 18 months. She prefers books that are touch and feel or that has a rhyming dialogue. I thought she would like this one because she loves other books featuring dancers and likes to point and say "duck" in other books featuring ducks. Also, this book has short fun sentences that I thought she'd enjoy hearing "Tra-la-la" so I'm not sure why she doesn't like this one. I'm hoping she will when she's a little older. I do enjoy reading it to her and it has a good lesson for kids old enough to understand it.

My daughter loves this series

It helps that her name is Katie I think... but now she reads them to me! She will walk around the house singing "Tra-La-La Quack Quack" :)
