Ready or Not, Dawdle Duckling — Toni Buzzeo

Mama Duck is playing hide-and-seek with her ducklings. As fast as you can say one, two, three, they find hiding spots. Except for Dawdle Duckling, that is. He takes his time . . . and gets some help from his friends. Turtle, Frog, and Fish all suggest that he hide behind them. But they're much smaller than Dawdle Duckling. And Mama Duck is about to come looking. How can our hero win the game?
Ollie, ollie, in free This is a happy, funny tale of friendship, cooperation, and the joy of play-a terrific companion to "Dawdle Duckling, " which "Kirkus Reviews" called "just right for the preschool set" and "Publishers Weekly" dubbed "immensely satisfying."
