Gossie and Gertie Board Book cover

A preschool story from the world of Gossie & Friends about feeling frustrated when a friend doesn't listen to what you say.

Gossie and Gertie are best friends. They splash in the rain, play hide-and-seek, and they dive in the pond together. Everywhere Gossie goes, Gertie does too. Until she doesn't! With charming illustrations and gentle text, Olivier Dunrea's sweet story of friendship will appeal to the youngest listeners.

Gossie and Gertie’s boots are made for walking; the books they so delightfully traverse are made for treasuring. Horn Book, Starred "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 "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 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 “Preschoolers are bound to ask for an encore reading, and they’ll probably ask for new boots, too.” The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books —
