First sentence: I have to go. But I'll be right back.

Premise/plot: Fox forgets to tell Bear that Goose has gone...but will be right back. Bear and Fox spend the book looking for Goose.

My thoughts: I do like some of the books in this series. This wasn't one that I loved...or even enjoyed. But if your little one loves these characters, this one isn't bad. It's just not absolutely wonderful.

I absolutely DO love the illustrations. ( )

Another simple, appealing story with that charming trio, Goose, Bear and Fox. ( )

Bloom does a fantastic job of authoring a book about friendship. Friends are there for supporting, interesting, and entertaining. Bloom does a good job of grabbing children's attention by using animals instead of humans. Each animal will give you clues about that animal's lifestyle. For example, a fox is sly and in the book, he forgets about his third friend. A good book for K-3 graders. ( )
