Make Way for Ducklings by Robert McCloskey

This was such a cute book!
I remember discovering about this book about 2 years ago on my trip in Boston. I went to the same public garden looking for the exact location of Robin Williams and Matt Damon scene in Good Will Hunting when they are sitting on a bench. I looked everywhere and because of my lack of research and my iPhone battery life I could not pinpoint it.
So instead I took a tour of Boston and learned about the book and I shelved this book in the farthest regions of my mind until now when I learn one of my friend is going to Boston for college. I immediately felt like I was in the park again because the illustrations of the book looks exactly like the real thing and could not believe how much effort that must have taken for a children's book to look real.
I enjoyed the story and it's great for kids the only issue I had was Mr. Millard simply left his wife all the heavy duty work of being a parent. She had to teach her kids how to swim, eat, walk in a line and being cautious with anything that has wheels. Other than that I really enjoyed the story and wished I could have read it sooner.
