I am now 78 , when I was three or four my mother, a teacher loved it, and bought and read it to me. Now we were from Boston so it kind of fit. When I was a little older I read it to myself several times. The same for my younger sister. Now a friend of mine ' s granddaughter will be getting this 75th aniversary copy with the map and cd for her 5th birthday. She loves books, especially her"nite nite" books and I can not wait to see her reaction, and hear about yours. A kind traffic cop, and a mother duck, and her babies trying to walk across traffic to get to the famous Public Gardens, how can you go wrong? Hope you love it.

A delightful introduction to duck behavior from egg to adult.
Anyone who lives in or wants to visit Boston will appreciate the 1940s vision of ducks living between the Charles River and the Boston Public Gardens. McCloskey was an author/illustrator who brought a special gentleness and humor to his work for children. Every child and parent should read his books again and again: Make Way For Ducklings, Blueberries for Sal, A Time of Wonder, One Morning in Maine, are books that build appreciation for nature and human relationships.

I had a bizarre experience of driving in northeastern Massachusetts one summer day when I had to stop on a road near a lake to let a family of ducks cross. Of course, I thought of Make Way for Ducklings. That is not all that unusual where ducks spend their summers. What happened next was that NPR sadly announced the death of Robert McCloskey. I am not superstitious, however that was one amazing, touching coincidence.

"Make Way for Ducklings" should be gifted to every baby by its fairy godparents. I remember having it read to me when I was little and the clothes & cars of the illustrations were contemporary. I read it to my sons, who loved the story of Mr and Mrs Mallard---that careful and competent mother of eight---and the compassionate policemen who stopped traffic right by the Boston Commons. I ordered a copy from Amazon a few weeks ago for my great-granddaughter, loving it just as much as ever.

Why does the book---the story and the illustrations---hold up so well over so many years and generations? The story tells of a kindly world, such as would make a child feel secure, warm, and happy: the loving parent ducks, the island in the lake of the great park where the swanboats still glide, and the police who care enough about little ones to stop traffic so Mrs Duck can lead her small family across the streets and into their new home in the park. The story tells also about a city, Boston, with the old squares, the state house, details from which the reader can take off with more stories for the little ones nestled close. And the illustrations in brown crayon (I think) are magical, individuating the ducklings, catching the quirkiness of the good citizens of Boston, bringing to our today the life of one spring day long long ago.

May you and your next generations delight in "Make Way for Ducklings" too!

This book is awesome and I am so glad I bought it for my nephew. Everyone should have an appreciation for ducks. The beautiful illustrations and lovely story line are unforgettable. Note, the illustrations are monochrome, with is less exciting to some children who prefer colors, but the artwork is stunning and inspiring to anyone who can appreciate it. My little nephew and niece love this book.

I'm 58 and fondly remember growing up in Mass and going to Boston Common to ride swan boats and feed ducks every summer. I have continued this tradition with my daughter every year when we visit as part of our ritual. This book was a favorite classic from my childhood, was given to my daughter as a gift when she was a baby. We continue to pass along this classic to friends as a baby gift.

Impossible to adequately praise this classic. No child should be without this in their library.

Super cute book for kids about boston. I love it, my daughter loves it, and my son will love it too when he is older. If you love Boston and have kids, you need this book. EVEN if you DON'T have kids, I think you will love this book

Classic. I grew up in New England and spent about 15 years outside of Boston. I have enjoyed this book for over 40 years.

Regardless of your home, this is a wonderful book to read to your children. The black and white drawings are beautiful. The words are simple yet beautiful to speak.
