Quentin was a duck with a very quick quack.
‘QUCK!’ said Quentin. ‘What’s wrong with me?’

Quentin’s quack has lost its A. Do any of the other animals have one to spare? Not likely! APES don’t want to be PES. SNAKES don’t want to be SNKES. PANDAS don’t want to be PNDAS or even PANDS. Will Quentin be stuck with a very quick QUCK?!

Fans of Oi Frog! ... will not be disappointed ...Once again, clever wordplay is at the heart of the story
Red Reading Hub
A quacking read aloud, a fun introduction to vowels and a brilliant way of showing children they need to be flexible in their approach to letters and sounds.
Nursery World
Another hit from an award-winning duo
Daily Express

An hilarious exploration of the alphabet
Huffington Post
The partnership of Kes Gray and Jim Field has produced two of the best picture books in recent years ... Perfect for children learning to read, write and spell
Reading Zone
From the creators of the excellent 'Oi, Frog', this is a must-have book for class libraries to share with children who are learning to read and write. ...Jim Field's illustrations work brilliantly for this story - but be warned, you'll need to practice before attempting to read it aloud!
Bath Life
The most hilarious picture book of the season
The Sunday Times
This picture book is based on a clever idea for helping emergent readers understand the connection between sounds and letters ... Jim Field's comical animal caricatures, bold and definite against brightly coloured backgrounds, make this learning journey a humorous pleasure.
The Bookbag
The children at school gave this book a rarely awarded 100 out of 10....An absolute delight of a book so please go and grab one for your bookshelves as quickly as you can!

Will have little ones rolling on the floor with laughter
