This classic tale of the famous Mallard ducks of Boston is available for the first time in a full-sized paperback edition. Awarded the Caldecott Medal in 1941, Make Way for Ducklings has been described as "one of the merriest picture books ever" (The New York Times). Ideal for reading aloud, this book deserves a place of honor on every child's bookshelf.
"Robert McCloskey's unusual and stunning pictures have long been a delight for their fun as well as their spirit of place." The Horn Book
It's the 70th anniversary of the classic children's book Make Way for Ducklings. Now years after the ducklings put their lives on the line by asserting their right to share the road, the Mallards have inspired others to make it safer to walk â?? or waddle â?? across city streets. More at NPR.org
