Reviews

"[A] wonderfully engaging easy reader. The simply drawn digital cartoon characters exude personality and charm. . . . This collection of small dramas is just right for fledgling readers and perfect for read-alouds and reader's theater productions." --School Library Journal on DUCK, DUCK, PORCUPINE!

"A simple chapter book/graphic novel to engage the youngest new readers . . . these three friends should find a place on the shelf with Yoon's earlier reading buddy, Penguin." --Kirkus Reviews on DUCK, DUCK, PORCUPINE!

"Novice readers will find success here. . . . Yoon's crisp, clean art has a coloring-book-like simplicity that will appeal to youngsters. . . . Kids (and the adults who work with them) can never have too many attractive, well-written beginning readers, and this trio of cuties is a welcome addition to the genre." --BCCB on DUCK, DUCK, PORCUPINE!

"A wonderful introduction to the comic book format for early readers and prereaders, and an entertainingly silly trio of stories, to boot." --Booklist on DUCK, DUCK, PORCUPINE!

"A sweet, visually striking story of friendship and acceptance." --Booklist on BE A FRIEND

"A terrific combination for preschoolers and early readers who will sympathize with Bear's competing desires." --The New York Times Book Review on FOUND

"A thoughtful, flawlessly executed exploration of theory of mind and emotional intelligence." --Publishers Weekly on FOUND

"Children and librarians alike will enjoy this charming new addition to the series. Similar in style to the beloved 'Elephant and Piggie' series by Mo Willems, Yoon's bright and humorous characters return to a story, speaking via speech bubbles with a strong black font" --School Library Journal
