Reception[edit]

Booklist, reviewing The Duckling Gets A Cookie!?, wrote 'Willems has an extraordinary ability to convey immediate, deep characterization with a few deft strokes. He knows, too, how to spread the action across a picture book, carefully managing the panels and page turns to ramp up the drama. Fans will delight at another outing, and the protagonist's indelible pigeonality will welcome newcomers to the club.'[1] and the School Library Journal wrote 'While just plain fun to read aloud, this book is an excellent conversation starter on the topics of politeness and making reasonable requests. This meta-tale that references the gamut of the Pigeon oeuvre will please fans and newcomers alike.'[1]

The Horn Book Magazine's review noted 'Simple speech-balloon text, animated illustrations, and a clean design continue to be a successful formula for Willems’s brand of storytelling.'[2]

The Duckling Gets a Cookie!? has also been reviewed by Publishers Weekly,[3]Kirkus Reviews,[4]Common Sense Media,[5]The New York Times,[6] and AudioFile.[7]

Common Sense Media has released a list of 50 books kids should read by age 12, and it's fantastic.

Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein is on there. So is Bud Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis.

I Am Malala by Malala Yousafzai, Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing by Judy Blume, Diary of a Wimpy Kid by Jeff Kinney and Dr. Seuss' The Cat in the Hat all made the cut.

“The list includes books that are known to turn a kid into a reader, books that are known to hook reluctant readers and books that have stood the test of time,” Common Sense senior editor Regan McMahon said.

“I also didn't want the list to be all books from a white, Western perspective,” she said.

“I wanted books that discuss the immigrant experience and the people-of-colour experience. I wanted different genres to be represented: poetry, science-fiction, graphic novels, historical fiction, novels in verse, dystopian novels, fantasy.”

McMahon compiled the list largely by herself, with input from the Common Sense managing editor and editorial director.

Certain books, she said, made the list for being cultural touchstones: The Hunger Games books by Suzanne Collins, Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery, The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter.

“When kids get to high school and people make literary allusions to certain works, it's a good idea that you've read them,” she said.

Not everyone agrees.

“A lot of people are horrified that we'd ever recommend The Hunger Games,” McMahon said, of the stories about 24 teens pitted in a reality-show race to kill one another.

“But it's a great series. I read it. And it's not only known to hook kids and appeal to both boys and girls, but it's a very trenchant critique of our media-obsessed culture and the culture of violence that we're steeped in.”

Besides, a list that pleases everyone would be a tall order.

“Not even The Cat in the Hat is safe from our finger-wagging culture,” McMahon said. (Some parents disapprove of Thing One and Thing Two destroying Sally and her unnamed brother's house.)

Another surprise was To Kill a Mockingbird, a book I didn't read until high school (and then again as an adult), on the list. But McMahon said several of her peers read the Harper Lee classic in middle school, and more to the point, she strongly believes the themes resonate with 11- and 12-year-olds today.

“Race is such a strong issue right now,” she said.

“The issue of consent is constantly being discussed on high school and college campuses right now. The notion that we need to protect our kids from concepts like rape and racism - I think kids are running into these topics anyway, so why not read a great literary work that deals with them?”
