        Preschool-G The endearing characters who first appeared in Hills' picture book Duck & Goose (2006), and later in other titles for young children, return in a beginning-reader book from the Step into Reading series. Duck has a gift for his friend Goose and puts it into a box, which he paints with red, blue, and yellow stripes. He watches the paint dry, adds a card and a bow, and presents it to his friend. Excited to receive a striped box as a present, Goose runs off to get his treasures to put inside. Misunderstood and deflated, Duck waits. When Goose returns, Duck explains the gift is inside the striped box. Opening it, Goose finds exactly what he needs. Simple, colorful paintings underscore the story's gentle humor, which lies in the birds' expressions and the final surprise. Any child who struggles with reading will appreciate the large font, short words, and brief sentences of the text, but the familiar characters make this a particularly good choice for kids who get an early start on learning to read.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2018, American Library Association.)

        In this latest entry (and first early reader) about the feathered friends, Duck presents a package to Goose, who thinks the box �cf2]is�cf1] the present: "This box is not your gift." "It is not mine?" A page-turn brings resolution: it is your box, Goose, but look what's �cf2]inside�cf1]. Age-appropriate foreshadowing, vocabulary repetition, visual jokes and recognizable emotions in unfussy illustrations, and a good payoff make for an enjoyable outing.

        For certain kids, the box can be the best part of a gift?especially when it's as enticing as the one Duck is about to give to Goose (Duck & Goose, rev. 1/06, and sequels) at the start of this entertaining early reader. Duck has a gift for Goose. He puts it in a box. The box is plain and white, but not for long. Duck carefully paints primary-colorful stripes on the outside and adds a neat blue bow to the top. No sooner does he finish than Goose arrives. Duck presents the package to his friend?who thinks the box is the present: For me? Thank you! It is the nicest box I have ever seen! Duck tries to correct the mistake ( But? ) while Goose eagerly gathers special things to put in the box. There's an emotional beat when Duck does finally get Goose's attention: But, Goose?This box is not your gift. It is not mine? But a page-turn brings quick resolution: phew, yes, of course it is your box, Goose, but let's look at what's inside. By now readers and listeners will be eager to see?and it's crystal-clear (from what came before in the story) that this is the perfect gift for Goose. Age-appropriate foreshadowing, vocabulary repetition, visual jokes and recognizable emotions in very unfussy illustrations, and a good payoff make for an enjoyable outing with Duck and Goose. elissa gershowitz
