A Story to teach about baby animals - and so much more!


“Goz, the Goofy Gosling.”

ž  In “The Goofy Gosling”, the main character is Goz, a newly-hatched gosling who wanders away from his nest in search of his brothers and sisters. He meets numerous different farmyard animals and a few wild creatures too.

Have fun with your child learning the names of various baby animals, as Goz comes across a duckling, a lamb, a calf, a foal, a chick, a piglet, a caterpillar and a tadpole.

ž  The book is full of delightful pictures of our central character, Goz, and his adventures with lots of other animals, birds and more! The repetition and rhythm of the story helps to reinforce your child’s knowledge of farmyard and other animals.

ž  The ‘Enrichment’ section at the back of the book provides opportunities to learn the sounds of lots of farmyard animals, and to reinforce an appreciation of the natural world.
