Children, parents and teachers will find it interesting to read this book together. As a book designed by a language teacher and for educational purposes, Two Duck Tales contains two parallel stories about Duckling, Momma Duck and Toy Duck who take very different journeys. Sometimes, characters may find their way into each other’s stories, bringing a lot of fun and imagination to reading and repeated reading. Teachers and parents can use this book to help children practice reading strategies. For example, it includes groups of parallel sentences to help young children as well as English language learners to master a certain sentence structure, phrase or word. To increase word identification, each illustration matches a key word in text on that page. Contrast and comparison are embedded in the plot to facilitate the learning of new words in different ways as well as improving reading comprehension and creative thinking. On April 26, 2011, Two Duck Tales received the Inga Kromann Honor Award as a Notable Children’s book.
