A heartwarming picture book about friendship, flying and the joy of sharing books.
In this story, there is a little girl and a gosling. And they both love each other very much. The girl and the gosling's very favourite thing to do is to visit the library and choose new books. But one day, there is a book the girl will not share. Before Gosling can peek inside, she slams the book shut and says: "I don't like this book. Let's play something else." After, the book goes missing, the girl and the gosling's friendship is changed.
Then one night, Gosling finds the missing book and leaves. Will the girl be able to find Gosling in time? And put things right and say sorry before it's too late?
This reassuring story teaches children that honesty and trust are what help friendships fly and is effortlessly brought to life by David Litchfield's atmospheric scenes and Anne Booth's warm and rich storytelling. The perfect bookshelf companion to The Duck Who Didn't Like Water, I'm Sticking With You, and Pip & Egg.
