Dunrea's gaggle of geese await Father Christmas Goose. Tired-of-waiting Ollie stands on his head, stomps around, and hollers "I want Christmas!" Dunrea captures the range of holiday-inspired feelings, from silent awe to wiggly impatience to shouts of joy. The spare but detail-filled pictures include amusing illustrative touches. Larger in format than previous Gossie books, this one's tailor-made for Christmas Eve group reading.
