Whimsical illustrations and a catchy refrain result in a joyous celebration of what makes us unique. Kirkus Reviews

This playful book shows ducks determined to go their own way. The first page of this playful picture book features the statement, Different ducks duck differently!, a refrain that is repeated throughout the book by the narrator who is clearly a duck lover who explains that they've heard this ever since they were three years old and encourages readers to ask a duck just how it ducks.

Each page of text alternates with the author's full-page illustrations featuring ducks ducking in some hilariously odd scenarios. The prose consists of gentle rhymes that are broken up every few pages by the refrain. The illustrations, characterized by sharp lines and bold colors, are highly detailed.

The author manages to instill an important message about being yourself in astonishingly few words-words that prove to be both moving and silly, a combination that is sure to delight both children and adults. The book shines brightest in its illustrations, which are gorgeous and richly layered; the exquisite details prompt eyes to linger. This attention to detail, paired with an inspiring message expressed in a fun new way, makes for a refreshing read.
