Muddle and Mo are the best of friends. Muddle is a loveable, slightly confused yet enthusiastic little duckling. Mo is a long-suffering, not very adventurous goat with lots of patience. Today, Muddle is preparing a surprise picnic for Mo. Mo doesn't like worms, so will he like what's in the basket? "An engaging read-aloud; preschoolers will enjoy the pictures and absorb valuable insights into friendship and individuality." --School Library Journal (U.S.) "The simple but original dialogue-only text is perfect for beginning readers--they speak in clearly different typefaces--and kids will enjoy the subtle humor of this slightly wacky friendship between two such different animals." --Kirkus Reviews (U.S.) "This unassuming little book is positively brimming with delight and beauty." --Reading Time (Australia) "I love the illustrations: the goat and chicken are very cute and will appeal to the young people who read the book." --ReadPlus (U.K.)
