Illustrated by
David Walker.
Bird pals Peep and Ducky romp in a mud puddle, have snacks, take a pee break, fight over a bucket, apologize, then part ways (with minor whining). Everything in the art is gently rounded and painted in springlike pastel colors. The simple and repetitive rhyming text is fun to read aloud--a bonus for adults, who will be asked to read this multiple times.
