Description

Caldecott Honor winner David Shannon applies his wonderful off-beat humor to the story of a duck who decides to try riding a bike -- and loves it! Another young, funny book perfect for reading aloud -- now in paperback!One day down on the farm, Duck got a wild idea. "I bet I could ride a bike," he thought. He waddled over to where the boy parked his bike, climbed on, and began to ride. At first he rode slowly and he wobbled a lot, but it was fun! Duck rode past Cow and waved to her. "Hello, Cow!" said Duck. "Moo," said Cow. But what she thought was, "A duck on a bike? That's the silliest thing I've ever seen!"And so Duck rides past Sheep, Horse, and all the other barnyard animals. Suddenly, a group of kids ride by on their bikes and run into the farmhouse, leaving the bikes outside. Now ALL the animals can ride bikes, just like Duck! Read more

  • We love David Shannon Books!
A delightful tale & beautiful illustrations! Bought one for my kindergartener & one for his teacher. 🩷

  • I wish I could ride a bike just like duck!
For me, any book that can be acted, as much as read aloud, is a book that I want to share with my listeners and one that I would definitely recommend to you. This book is both those things. The ingenious text invites you to mimic the farm animals and be the most spirited reader you can be. In the hands of a dedicated reader and/or a devoted parent, this title will prove an exceedingly satisfying read. The illustrations are gorgeous and can be most appreciated in the arms of a child while he/she studies them up close. The clever ending will hopefully tempt your son or daughter to say, "Uh-oh, what's he up to now?" and foster a discussion with him/her about what might happen to Duck next. This is one of the best examples of contemporary literature for young children because it so artfully combines smart writing with outstanding illustrations. Again, like so many of the books I've presented to my audiences at the Children's Museum, this is a book that should be included in your young child's library because it will undoubtedly be read over and over and enjoyed till it's worn. ... show more

  • Funniest Children's Book Ever!
I first bought this book at a book fair at my son's school when he was 4. He's now 12 and I cannot count how many copies of this book I have purchased for gifts over the years. It's great for girls and boys alike. The story is so engaging for young ones, and the pictures are so bright and colorful. My kids laugh from beginning to end every time! And the message is one I love...never be afraid to try something...even if others think you shouldn't or you can't. Kids like to read the same book over and over, night after night, and this is one I NEVER get tired of reading. I have a younger son now too and he loves this book too now! I also recommend 'How I Became A Pirate' by the same author (David Shannon). But that one is probably better for boys. This one is great for any child. ... show more

  • This is a favorite

  • Love this Book!
So many wonderful times reading this book! I originally bought this book years ago to read to my niece. For several years we read it over and over again, thrilled each time to laugh together reading the fabulous words and inspecting the hilarious pictures. Approximately 10 years later I bought the same book for my daughter and had the same experience. She even chose it as the book she wanted me to read to her first grade class when I volunteered one special day. It was a hit!! I recently bought this book as a baby gift for a dear friend if mine so that she and her son can enjoy it in the coming years. Even as an adult reading to a child, it is simply entertaining... even after reading it for the 100th time! ... show more

  • Awesome story and illustrations!
I work in the library reading children's books to preschoolers. My all time favorite book. Wonderful illustrations and plenty of opportunities to let the children guess what will happen next. There is also a follow up book, Duck on a Tractor. Very nice but I prefer the original.

  • Fantastic artwork, marvelous fun!
We originally checked this one out of the library, but we had to purchase it as it's a favorite repeat! What amazing artwork!!! Bold, beautiful, and totally engaging! The story is very funny, even to the youngest set. For my son, it's been a wonderful introduction to the concept of "thinking" and how to express and wonder about what someone else might be "thinking". It is definitely on our current "top 10" list of our all-time favorite books! Thank you for the duck at "The End" eying that tractor and scratching his chin... perhaps a sequel???? ... show more

  • Such a fun book, one of our family’s favorites
I purchased this time for a friend...this has been a favorite of ours for years! I love the different attitudes of the animals that see duck riding the bike expressed through the illustrations as well as what each one says. Will continue to buy this for baby showers.
