Goose's Story
Paperback
(Farrar, Straus and Giroux (BYR) Oct. 13, 2009)
, First Edition edition
Every spring, the geese touch down on the pond in a honking, flapping celebration. But this year, one of them is different. As it stands on one leg--shunned by the other geese, unable to search for food, to swim, or even to fly away--a young girl wonders: how can a goose with one foot survive?
"A heartwarming story with a tender message about accepting others in spite of their differences and helping those who are less able." --Starred, School Library Journal
"Best's simple prose is rhythmic and beautiful . . . Every child who has nursed an injured creature will recognize the bond, the distance, and the hope. " --Starred, Booklist
