5.0 out of 5 stars A Funny Book for Parent & Child!, October 25, 2005

By	Laura Goodwin "thrifty-chick" (Madison, IN USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a cute book to read together with your child. The duck seems pretty adamant about NOT being tickled AT ALL, but then proceeds to tell you where NOT to tickle him. If you've ever tickled your children, you'll see the similarities. It'll keep you and your child in stitches, but be sure to use a funny, nasaly voice when you read it to them!

5.0 out of 5 stars Laugh out Loud Funny, September 25, 2005

By	Hawaii Mom (Oahu, Hawaii) - See all my reviews

My almost-3 year old laughs out loud quite enthusiastically at this book! As they say, laughter is contagious and giving kids the opportunity to "tickle" the duck is great. There are lots of different textures for younger readers as well. This reminds me of Mo Wilhelms books (The Pigeon Drives the Bus)(also highly recommended) with the same sense of humor that adults will enjoy also.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tickle the Duck will have You Tickled Pink, February 7, 2007

By	Picky mom (IL) - See all my reviews

The script of this book has the duck talking to your child and asking, er, begging, not to be tickled. He keeps pointing to a specific body part (tummy, foot, underarm) and asking to not tickle there. Then, since obviously your child will want to tickle him, the following page shows him laughing hilariously. Each of the featured body parts has a texture to it making it extra enticing to tickle the duck.

This book is so much fun. Our toddler loves it and laughs right along with the duck. Tickle the Duck is a delightful interactive book that your child is sure to want to read over and over again.
