Reviews for Duck in the Truck include: 'Rhyme, illustration, wit and inventiveness combine to produce outstanding quality.' TES Primary 'With light-hearted tension, wry characterisations and lots of squishy mud, this tale makes for a quacking good read-aloud.' Publishers Weekly, US 'Albourough's text is perfect for reading out loud and the mix of close-up and panoramic illustrations give an animated, live-action feel.' Junior 'Colourful, arresting and busting with action.' Child Education
