Overview / 简介: |
Who does this little chick belong to? No one seems to know—not Goose (Honk!), not Duck (Quack!), not Hen (Cluck!), not Bird (Chirp!). Not even Little Chick (croo? croo?). But Little Chick's parents know, and—as sharp observers will delight in noting—they've been swimming nearby all along. |

PreSchool-K—As the sun rises, two swans awake and leave their egg on the shore while they swim away to find food. The other feathered creatures are surprised by the sight of it. "CLUCK! CLUCK! Whose egg is this?" "QUACK! QUACK! Whose egg is this?" Then, when a fuzzy gray hatchling emerges, the question becomes, "Whose chick are you?" Mother Swan knows the answer, and readers who are attentively searching the pages will often detect the swans hovering close by. Tafuri's sunlit watercolor and brush-pen illustrations magnify each inquisitive animal so that it appears to be life-size. Children will find it satisfying to witness the meeting of parents and their offspring, and they are likely to sing along with the chirps, honks, clucks, and quacks while they jump into this vividly drawn world.—Susan Weitz, formerly at Spencer-Van Etten School District, Spencer, NY

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
This book is way too cute. Baby swan pops out of the egg while parents are not around. All the birds check the little chick and asks Whose Chick Are You? Parent Swans are nearby and if you look closely you will see them in the background, which makes the whole thing so adorable. They then come to the baby and snuggle. What is really cool about this is that it is not hetero-focused. There is no mention of mommy and daddy, they are just two gender-neutral swans, so it is great for queer couples as well, and their little chicks :). |
