The Little Green Goose

(3) K-3 Translated by J. Alison James. Illustrated by Alan Marks. Mr. Goose desperately wants a chick of his own, so he adopts a stray egg and raises the unusual creature that hatches from it. When the "little green goose," who looks like a dinosaur, realizes he doesn't resemble his surrogate parent, he searches for his real mother, only to realize that he is already happy and well loved. A Swiss import, the unusual adoption tale will delight young readers.
