Very cute story about 5 ducks going camping. The watercolors are beautiful. They inspired me and my kid to take out our watercolors and dabble. Very enjoyable.

It's going to be a lot of fun because everyone loves camping. Five little ducks are busy setting up their colored tents. One duck is hammering the last stake, while two of them have a mischievous one that is flapping in the breeze. Three tents up, two to go and they'll be all ready. Of course a little squirrel sits in a tire swing munching on an acorn enjoying the entertainment. "All five up!" the ducks proudly announce and they start putting all their gear inside. A little of this, a little of that. There is everything any duck could possibly want for a camping trip!

All five ducks grab their straw hats, a fishing pole, chairs and mats and they're off to catch a few fish for their dinner. The lines are in and they only have to wait. Wait, there is something! "One duck yanks. Two ducks lunge. Three ducks lean. Four ducks plunge. Five ducks heave and five ducks haul. One duck slips-and four ducks sprawl!" Oooops, they lost him. They all head back when it starts to get dark. All of a sudden they hear a "whoo-whoo-whoooooo." They rush to hide in their tents. What can that horrible scary noise be? Whooo is it?

This is an adorable story that children will want read to them time and time again. The art work is animated and the story in rhyme is very appealing. This is a perfect story to read aloud at bedtime, circle time, at homeschool . . . it's a great one to read anywhere!
