"A lonely duck with a 'wonky leg' longs for a friend but hesitates to venture into the world. One day, a self-centered, blind chicken wanders into the duck's backyard and quickly decides the duck will support her on an adventure to the 'place where all our secret wishes come true.' They progress in fits and starts. Sometimes the chicken leads; sometimes the duck is the brave one. Together, they conquer a scary black forest, cross a ravine on a narrow plank, and climb the highest mountain in the world--or do they? In a final test of their friendship, the chicken stumbles on a secret that casts the adventure and their friendship in a totally new light. This deceptively simple book's philosophical tone and sophisticated vocabulary make it ideal for older, practiced, and thoughtful readers or listeners (it makes for a solid read-aloud, too). Brief lines of orange text signal transitions and possible chapter breaks. Illustrations, all bold and abstract, are spare but are both strategic and impressive, anchoring the pair's emotional journey and clarifying the shifting leadership roles. Images of gnarly black trees, a brilliantly blue mountaintop followed by white pages (all that is visible amid the mountaintop clouds), and a canyon in earthen colors and wild brush strokes add welcome bursts of visual drama. A simple story for philosophical listeners, who will ponder the opening statement: 'The goal is in the way.'"--Kirkus Reviews, "A simple story for philosophical listeners, who will ponder the opening statement: 'The goal is in the way.'"--Kirkus Reviews

The book is a new copy (as I ordered). Arrived within the frame time. There was no way to track the shipping (which was annoying but I didn't try to contact the seller). The book was packaged in a secure envelope which protected it.
