In this early reader with five short chapters, emerging readers meet Pig and Goose. Pig is happy. She loves to dance. She loves to eat. But she cannot fly. And she cannot swim. Goose can fly like a bird. Goose can glide across the water beautifully. But he cannot tell stories or host a party like Pig can. Pig and Goose are very different. But what they do have in common is that they like each other. And they love springtime.
Simple text and charming illustrations guide beginning readers throughout the story and encourage independent reading.
A lovely story to share with preschoolers and young independent readers. An excellent selection — School Library Journal starred review
Approachable while giving new readers a sense of accomplishment" — Kirkus Reviews
An ideal choice for older listeners transitioning to young readers, but the playful dialogue also lends itself to reading aloud — Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
**A quiet but effective reminder that an individual's appearance and skills are not the source of his or her worth — Publisher's Weekly
The comfortable line-and-watercolor illustrations capture both the season and the spirit of the story — Horn Book**
