A zany parody on the children’s game of Duck, Duck, Goose, but in this version Duck, Duck, and Goose soar through the skies, leaving the cold weather behind on their annual migration south. But they encounter a moose “on the loose” in a paraglider. Then they catch a ride on a caboose. And Duck’s truck get stuck in the muck. There is minimal text. Almost all the words end in -uck (cluck, truck, stuck, muck, luck) and -oose (loose, vamoose) making this a good first book for beginning readers. Kids should be encouraged to volunteer other words that rhyme. The comical artwork is a blend of hand-drawn pencil with digital color added. In the end, the paragliding moose gets them to their tropical location.
