Review # 1 was written on 2019-06-04 00:00:00 Mark Thomas Barnes This is an older Palatini but it was new to me. I love her word play and it is pervasive in this book about a young duck who thinks he is experiencing an earthquake. His warnings are reluctantly heeded by other barnyard animals as they experience the similar rumblings. A sly weasel tries to take advantage of the situation before the animals discover what is really going on. With many animals with rhyming names and puns related to those animals, the word play is a great lesson in and of itself. A fun book for classrooms and families.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-10-28 00:00:00 Michael Furniss This version of "The Henny Penny" tale, has Chucky Ducky, sounding the alarm that the earth is crumbling because of earthquakes! I have read many versions of the Henny Penny tale; this one is great in its vocabulary and word usage! But the illustrations really didn't keep my interest! The reason for the earth crumbles, is a very interesting one, in my opinion. I don't know if the little ones will know the geography mentioned in the story. Adults, will probably need to explain, why the moles are digging up the ground!
