Cute story.

My daughter got this for Easter from her Grandma, and since she has started watching Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood, she recognized the characters. We had seen the episode where they return a duck to the farm, so this gave us background for how the class got the duck.

Reads like an episode, just without songs. Good length for her 1 year old attention span.

My 2 boys love this book. They are 6 (he has ASD), and my second is 6 months old and listens while looking at the pictures the entire time. My daughter loves to read this to her brothers as well. We love it because it helps teach that waiting pays off in the end. Patience is key. Would love to read more like this.
