Author Description

DK is pleased to introduce a new series of superior first picture books for children 3-6 years of age to share with their parents. These fun and engaging stories by well-known children's authors feature contemporary illustrations designed to delight young readers. Developed in conjunction with reading consultant Bernice Cullinan, the series includes helpful hints for reading to children and after-reading activities based on the stories. For children ready to graduate from DK's successful Toddler Series, Share-A-Story is the next step in creating independent and thoughtful readers. Hungry Mrs Wolf finds it harder and harder to think of eating the adorable little duckling she's hatched and raised. Will she eat him? It seem doubtful in this warm tale of an unlikely family.
