classic picture book submitted by adimarzo on July 14, 2011, 9:00am "Make Way for Ducklings" is a classic children's book, telling the story of a duck family that makes its home in Boston, Massachusetts. Those familiar with Boston will enjoy the illustrations and references to Boston landmarks such as Boston Garden, Charles River and Beacon Hill. Children will enjoy seeing and hearing about the mother and father ducks and their eight ducklings as they make their way through the streets of Boston (with a little help from such human friends). If you visit Boston, make sure you find the Make Way for Ducklings statutes in the Boston Garden. A definite photo opp!

A must read submitted by Zekicmom on August 30, 2015, 7:33pm "Make Way For Ducklings" is a classic book that tells the story of a pair of ducks searching for the perfect place to hatch and raise their ducklings. Lovely illustrations, sweet characters.

Beloved for decades submitted by hduke on June 22, 2019, 11:59am And it's easy to see why. The tale of Mr. and Mrs. Mallard and their adorable ducklings was a staple during my childhood, and is still loved by my family today.

Great book submitted by bmurphy on August 2, 2019, 4:48pm I love this book. Wonderful illustrations!

Wonderful book submitted by abigailmurphy on August 2, 2019, 4:49pm We love this book, it is a family favorite picture book.

Great book submitted by JennJenn on August 12, 2020, 3:23pm We love this book and the rhyming duckling names. If possible, it is made even more fun by a visit to the Duckling statue in the Boston Public Gardens.
