MONDAY: Duck! Rabbit!


Did you ever take a psychology class where they showed you a picture that was actually two different pictures, depending on how you looked at it? Some of the classics are the young woman/old woman or the vase/two faces. Depending on where your eyes focus, you see one image or the other.

Duck! Rabbit! works on the same principle. Even from the cover you can see either the long ears of the rabbit or the long beak of the duck. In the book, two off-stage speakers argue over whether or not the figure is a duck or a rabbit. It is a fun and clever idea that kids will enjoy.
