“One of my twins decided to make his additional Lenten practice to play more often with his little brother. I am sure this is an extension of the examples set by Seth and Meg in the Devotional Stories. They also no longer immediately groan when we ask them to watch their brother, take out the trash or do other little spontaneous chores. After using [How to Dress a Duck], I have noticed how they talk about God's influence in all things around them, not just spouting off the science facts they read in books. Even at age 7, they are beginning to understand our relationship with God, each other, our family, our community and our environment because it is incorporated into everything we do during the day.”

“My family is greatly enjoying [How to Dress a Duck]. My husband and I are impressed with the content and accurate information this book and your other science texts (especially Behold and See 4) provide while explaining the Faith within the topic. So many Catholic texts that attempt to do this fall very short and the topic explanations become "fluffy" and the faith explanations seem very forced.”
