"A moving, deftly written story.. Baby Duck is illustrated with seductive charm by Jill Barton." The Financial Times on In the Rain with Baby Duck "Brilliant combination of text and pictures... What makes it such a good book is the range of human emotions conveyed in the clipped text and the expressions of the ducks. A night after night book for two to four-year-olds." The Sunday Telegraph on In the Rain with Baby Duck "A book which moves cleverly beyond mere fancy to offer both adults and children real food for thought about sibling rivalry." The School Librarian "Perfect reading for under fives." Nursery World on Baby Duck and the New Eyeglasses
