I Am Goose!

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Vanya Nastanlieva. The silly-goose protagonist can't understand why Pig, Fox, and Turtle are chosen as the goose in a Duck, Duck, Goose game. Amid the ridiculously ruffled feathers is a fair amount of information about what makes a goose a goose (webbed feet, feathers, etc.) and a demonstration of how to compare and contrast--in this case, between "A Goose" and "Not a Goose." The accessible speech-bubble dialogue within the pastel-hued illustrations would make this a good choice for a readers'-theater cast to strut its stuff.
