This cute duo of board books shows a sibling pair exploring the world. The older sibling has reddish hair in pigtails and the younger wears a blue hat. Both are white. In both books they're taking a walk and the younger child questions the older child, who gently corrects and explains what they're seeing.

In the trucks title, the little one is looking for a yellow truck and the older child corrects each identification of a vehicle as a "yellow truck", saying "No, the fire truck is red!" and so on. Each vehicle makes a sound and there is a squirrel to find on each spread. In the ducks title, the two look at different birds (and their dog!) until they find the ducks. There are bird sounds on each page and a mouse to find. I appreciated that in the first picture they're shown carrying corn, not bread, to feed the ducks.

The art has a friendly, scribbly look with bright green foliage, cheerful flowers, and a friendly yellow dog accompanying the children on their travels.

Verdict: These sweet board books make a nice addition to any collection, especially if you are focusing on encouraging parents and caregivers to talk to their children.
