All the text prior to this point has been either iterations of “Dada” or animal sounds in dialogue bubbles here, narrative text states, “Now everybody get in line, let’s say it together one more time….” Upon the turn of the page, the animal dads gaze round-eyed as their young across the gutter all cry, “DADA!” (except the duckling, who says, “quack”). Ordóñez's illustrations have a bland, digital look, compositions hardly varying with the characters, although the pastel-colored backgrounds change.
A final two-spread sequence finds all of the animals arrayed across the pages, dads on the verso and children on the recto. A duck, a bee, a dog, a rabbit, a cat, a mouse, a donkey, a pig, a frog, a rooster, and a horse all fail similarly, spread by spread. A sad-looking ram insists, “DADA!” his lamb baas back. I enjoyed reading this book to my own children, who got a laugh out of the twin fishes.A succession of animal dads do their best to teach their young to say “Dada” in this picture-book vehicle for Fallon.Ī grumpy bull says, “DADA!” his calf moos back. Using rhyming words the usage of the fish throughout the story helps young children with early literacy. This is great for children, who are familiar with and still learning about opposites, numbers, similarities, sizes differentiation. The size of the typography is on the large side but it very easy to read.
The typography looks handwritten and not a computer font, which gives it a more friendly feeling. And the Montage of fishes was an excellent over view of what fishes were mentioned as Little Fish friends. The double page spread really captures all the different fishes and the medium with the vibrant colors with the black borders help separate all the different fishes. The book is fairly large but the inside makes up for that because the illustrations are just amazing. But Little Fish favorite fish is introduced in the end of the story, can you guess who this special fish could be?
Little Fish friends are all different, colors, shapes, appearances, sizes and there are some friends that are the same. In this story Little Fish takes you along to meet all his friends.
