Charm, whimsy, rhythm
Fix-It Duck is fun to read out loud, even after the 100th time. With its musicality, children can quickly memorize the words and participate in the reading. A wonderful fun first entry into reading on their own. Duck is generous even though his efforts go awry, and loved by his friends despite his shortcomings. Everyone in life will know at least one "Fix-It Duck", so it may also become part of your family shorthand. This is the book I turn to when I need a gift for anyone 4 and under.
