Praise for Truck Full of Ducks, by Ross Burach:"Burach will have readers quacking up, both with the frequent repetition of the title -- 'Did you call for a truck full of ducks?' is a funny line no matter how often it's read or heard -- and over the illustrations… Sight gags and side comments in the pictures add further yuks to this ducky delight." -- Booklist"Children will delight in the extreme silliness of this story and will repeatedly pore over the detailed, colorful, and quirky illustrations." -- School Library Journal"Burach tells his story entirely through dialogue, packing it -- and his exuberant, crayon-like digital illustrations -- with visual jokes [and] an abundance of funny details to discover in each scene." -- Publishers Weekly"Silly details decorate every spread… Storytime audiences will quack up." -- Kirkus ReviewsPraise for Billy Bloo is Stuck in Goo, illustrated by Ross Burach:2018 CBC Children's & Teen Choice Book Awards Finalist"Begs to be read aloud… Gleeful, errant nonsense." -- Kirkus Reviews"Plenty to linger (and laugh) over." -- Publishers Weekly"Lots of giggles and goo, and weird characters too, in this rhyming cumulative storytime read-aloud, make this title a must-have for picture book collections." -- School Library Journal
