Here’s a gem from the Little Tiger Press.
Goose’s Pond is a haven of fun, frolicking and friendship. However, Goose has to go away on a holiday and leaves the duck in charge, who errrmm…takes his charge a bit too seriously.
Soon, the Pond is smothered by several “Don’t” signs put up by an overly-conscientious duck. He soon sees the error of his ways.
The illustrations are simply delightful and the story, hilarious. Though there is an important message hidden in there ...
Excerpt
Duck was having a little nap when the frogs dived into the water, SPLASH!
“Frogs!”Duck yelled. “What do you think you’re doing? Diving is forbidden!”
“Forbidden?” said the frogs angrily. “Says who?”
