A new gosling joins Dunrea's farmyard. Gideon "likes to play. All day" until he collapses in a tiny heap atop a haystack. Otto introduces Gideon's "favorite friend," a stuffed-toy octopus. The two are briefly separated; their reunion is a sweet surprise. Seemingly simple, the art is filled with clever, kid-beguiling details. This review covers Gideon and Gideon & Otto.
