“Ping lived with his mother and father and two sisters and three brothers and eleven aunts and eleven uncles and fourty two cousins” This shows how big Pings family is!

I probably wouldn‘t use this book in my classroom because of how old it is. There are other more relevant books I think children would be more interested in.

Mehso-so

“The Story about Ping” by Marjorie Flack, 1933. Picture Book. This is a book I had at my house growing up. The content of the book is okay, but references spanking. This book was written in the 30‘s so it makes sense for the time period, but is now an outdated form of punishment.

@Come-read-with-me posted some of her childhood favorites so I thought I would do the same since she asked in her post about my favorite finds .I always think I can let them go , but I can‘t.

Come-read-with-me @Leftcoastzen These are fantastic! Thank you for sharing ☺️ Don‘t ever let them go - they were some of your first book friends! 5y
Leftcoastzen @Come-read-with-me Thanks , I nearly tear up just looking at them.❤️😂 5y
Come-read-with-me @Leftcoastzen My books have the same effect on me! Whenever my husband walks by my office and hears soft sniffles he knows I‘m reading my old favourites! 🌺 5y

The classic book, The Story about Ping, is a beautifully-illustrated story, featuring a little yellow duck, who hides in fear of being punished, only to meet something much more sinister. Ping, who is personified with human-like feelings, is late arriving to his family‘s boat one afternoon. He knows that the last duck across the bridge receives a spank, so he hides and awakes to a world much different from the one he previously knew.

Sace Oh! My mother read Ping to me when I was little! 7y

Marjorie Flack died before I was born, but I have always loved her Story About Ping thanks to Captain Kangaroo. I didn't discover Ask Mr. Bear or the Angus books until I had my own kids, but we all loved those too. The first Angus book is Angus and the Ducks and it is fantastic.
