Description

Now in a board book! A much beloved and timeless tale about showing kindness and the power of paying it forward, featuring a cast of animal characters -- perfect for toddlers, preschools, and as a baby shower gift. "Uh-oh. I'm lost," a little duck says. "I can help," says a monkey, who swings down from a tree and points out Mama duck. Then, the monkey loses his balance! Who can help him! Giraffe can! And so the fun begins in this beautifully-illustrated story by David Hyde Costello about how rewarding it is to help someone in need.

Reviews

"Each animal has offered a solution suited to its skills, and the words are easily memorized with their variations: perfect intellectual engagement on the preschool level." --Newsday

"The animals' predicaments will be familiar to young children, and the concept of helping is right on target for the always-eager-to-lend-a-hand audience. Costello's animated art tells a lot of the story, and there's enough easily resolved tension to keep things lively." --Horn Book
