Hope, Said the Goose
Norwegian title: Håpe, sa gåsa
A lovely collection of animal poetry from one of our foremost picture book creators. As the title suggests, a very special goose takes centre stage. Some of the poems are amusing, whilst others are poignant, philosophical or simply curious. Goose is fond of swan, with his long and elegant neck. It's not all bad being a goose though – especially when the swan whispers beautiful words to her.
