Daisy is a funny looking duckling. Throughout the book she meets other animals, all of whom make a different noises. To each new animal she meets she says "Coo!"

That's really all there is to this board book. There are the bright and off kilter illustrations, the different animals and the endless repetition of "and Daisy says coo!"

Daisy the duckling is obviously a popular character having starred in more than a dozen books. The Daisy books have also been translated into a number languages. Daisy Says Coo! is billed as a "first Daisy book" and I think it will be our last because didn't grab either of my children's attention.

Short, sweet. Not the best in the series, but maybe a good introduction for those younger than 2.
