Peep and Ducky
4 total works
David Martin and David Walker bring the littlest readers a story full of snow-day fun, complete with snacks, surprises, and, best of all, friendship.
“It’s snowing!” yells Peep.
“It’s snowing!” yells Ducky.
And they both have sleds.
Lucky, lucky, lucky.
What could be a more perfect toddler adventure? When the snow starts to fall, Peep and Ducky climb into their sleds for a race, landing happily on each other after hitting a bump. Then they’re on to building a snowman. But when the top half crashes, someone kicks snow and both friends get mad . . . until they crack each other up. With irresistible illustrations and a singsong text that begs to be read aloud, David Martin and David Walker usher the winsome duo into another season.

“Totally in tune with toddlers, this snappy read-aloud gets it right.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
When Peep visits Ducky on a rainy day, the little friends have no trouble finding things to do. Inside, there’s a tent to build and a pillow fight to be had. And outside, with the help of galoshes and umbrella, it’s fun to captain a boat — until a whoosh of wind and a clap of thunder send them running back in! Perfectly tuned to a toddler sensibility, this exuberant tale will enchant both listener and reader.

“The rhymed verse has a playfulness that echoes the birds' light rambunctiousness. . . . A quiet but well-observed portrait of a budding friendship.” —Publishers Weekly
