About the Author
Eric Carle is the creator of more than seventy picture books for young readers.
Eric Carle was born in New York, USA. However, when he was just six, he moved with his parents to Germany. In 1952, after graduating from the prestigious Akademie der Bildenden KÜnste in Stuttgart, he fulfilled his dream of returning to New York.
Eric Carle has received many distinguished awards and honours for his work, including, in 2003, the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award for his lifetime contribution to children's literature and illustration.
In 2002, fifty years after Carle's return to the United States, The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art was opened in Amherst, Massachusetts. Here visitors of all ages can enjoy, in addition to Eric Carle's work, original artwork by other distinguished children's book illustrators from around the world.

Not as good as the original - No Squeaker!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 10 Little Rubber Ducks Board Book (World of Eric Carle (Harper)) (Board book)
While I love Eric Carle's words and illustrations, this board book is not as good as the hardcover edition. Yes, the story is exactly the same, but the font in this book is quite small, so it might be harder for some people to see/read. The biggest disappointment for me, though, was the lack of the squeaky rubber duck at the end. We have board book versions of other Eric Carle books, and they still have their "special" last page: "The Very Quiet Cricket" board book still makes noise; "The Lonely Firefly" board book still lights up... I could have sworn we even had a board book version of this in the past that had a thicker final page and still had the rubber duck embedded, but this one does not. It just doesn't even feel like the same book without that added element. If I had known there was no squeaker in this one, I wouldn't have bought it for my niece. If I had to sum up my experience in one word, it would be "disappointment."

This review is from: 10 Little Rubber Ducks Board Book (Board book)
We've been waiting and waiting for this book to come out in a boardbook edition.
It is a favorite of my children, but one is very young, and has accidentally ripped some pages in other books. My first complaint is that the type seems kind of small, relative to other boardbooks by Mr. Carle and compared to the original version. However, my biggest disappointment came with the surprise at the end. I won't spoil it for everyone, but the format is "different" than in the original. It is cuter, and likely longer lasting, but it is a little more difficult to get it to work than the simpler mechanism in the paper book. I'd *strongly* suggest that you look at one of these in person before purchasing it ... I'm quite disappointed, but we have it now and the kids certainly love it!

This review is from: 10 Little Rubber Ducks Board Book (Board book)
My 15 month old girl loves this book! The ducky at the end isn't defective...you just have to hit it quickly for it to squeak since it is so small. We read this one regularly!
