"Two books that are sure to become favorites... Young children will ask to hear these stories again and again, and they're just right for little hands." School Library Journal, Starred — School Library Journal (starred review) "Adding ample wry humor to both his spare ink-and-watercolor pictures and minimalist text, Dunrea imbues both goslings with distinctive, endearing personalities and chronicles experiences every preschooler can recognize." — Publishers Weekly (starred review) Gossie and Gertie’s boots are made for walking; the books they so delightfully traverse are made for treasuring. — Horn Book (starred review) "The potent combination of toddler-appealing story lines and the charismatic charm of the illustrations assure that these smartly clad geese will be marching straight into the hearts of readers." — Kirkus Reviews “Preschoolers are bound to ask for an encore reading, and they’ll probably ask for new boots, too.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
