"Really don't think this book should be read to young children. I read this to Ethan when he was about 7 or 8 months old, and just remember that the birds were swans pulled out their own feathers to kill the ducks, and the ducks were pulling out their own feathers to kill the swans. Hmm... This is probably a better fable for older children though."
"Don't be fooled by this book. Not as sweet and peaceful as one would expect from the cover! I sat down with my 4 year old nephew and started to read this book. I thought it was way too deep for a 4 year old! Had a great message and was very well written....but definitely an older child's book."
"Don't be fooled by the fact that this is a picture book, this is a well written book containing a powerful message about getting along that we all need to remember. Bunting does a masterful job of revealing this theme without being didactic or preachy. Although it is not a new book, it certainly is a timely book for the world in which we currently live."
