Is it a duck or a rabbit? It all depends on how you look at it! “How cute is this? Really, really cute.” —Booklist (starred review) From the award-winning author of Little Pea, Little Hoot, and Little Oink comes a clever take on the age-old optical illusion: is it a duck or a rabbit? Readers will find more than just Amy Krouse Rosenthal's signature humor here—there's also a subtle lesson for kids who don't know when to let go of an argument. A smart, simple story that will make readers of all ages eager to take a side, Duck! Rabbit! makes it easy to agree on one thing—reading it again! “[A] fun, interactive read-aloud. The bold lines and bright colors in Lichtenheld's illustrations are a visually pleasing match for the bantering text. With a strong, well-executed concept, this book provides an excellent starting point for discussing how points of view can differ and still be right.” —School Library Journal

In A Series Of Spreads That Show The Boldly Outlined Duck/rabbit Against A Blue Sky, Two Offstage Speakers, Their Words Appearing On Either Side Of The Animal's Head, Argue Their Points Of View. The Snappy Dialogue Makes For Fine Read-aloud: Are You Kidding Me? It's Totally A Duck. It's For Sure A Rabbit. Though The Main Image Is Basically Static, Lichtenheld Has Fun With The Details And Setting, Placing The Animal Behind Green Leaves (now The Duck Is Wading Through The Swamp. No, The Rabbit Is Hiding In The Grass), Near Water (look, The Duck Is So Hot, He's Getting A Drink. No, The Rabbit Is So Hot, He's Cooling Off His Ears), Etc. The Creature's Disappearance Brings A Brief Moment Of Reconciliation, But The Twist Ending Puts The Speakers At Odds Again. Duck? Rabbit? As Kids Will Readily See, It Depends On How You Look At It.
