Welcome to Goosefeather farm, a warm and happy place. With delightful, brightly illustrated pages, the book deserves a place in your library.
It is Duck’s first day at Goosefeather Farm and its other residents find it hard to accept the differences between themselves and their newest member especially her beak.
Soon, they realize that the duck not only has a heart of gold but her beak comes to the rescue of Hen’s eggs, Cat’s kittens and Horse’s oats.
The Goosefeather Farm series is a colorful and cheery means to introduce children to diversity and to help them appreciate the unique differences that make each of us special.
Excerpt
Cat, Hen and Horse gathered in the farmyard.
“Duck really does look silly,” said Cat.
“We agree,” said Horse and Hen. “What is the point of having a beak that’s so big?”
The three friends nodded to each other, but they were all soon to find out!
