Gordon the Meanest Goose on Earth
There are plenty of mean geese in the world. They hiss and honk and chase you down for a handful of crumbs. But Gordon is the meanest of them all. He stomps on sandcastles, knocks ice-creams out of hands, and punches sharks - he's the worst, and he loves it. Until one day, something extraordinary happens . . . Anthony the Piglet gives him a flower. With this one act of kindness, Gordon's world begins to crumble. Join Gordon the Goose, Anthony the Piglet, and the citizens of Grover Gardens for a laugh-out-loud journey of empathy, courage, and soggy bread. For more mean goose antics with Gordon: * Gordon Starts a Band (Volume 2) * Gordon Wins it All * Gordon: In the City.
*** Indie Children's Book of the Month June 2024 *** "A very funny story with amazing colour illustrations." * BookTrust * "Hilarious little 6+ story of a bumpy road to redemption, heightened by Latimer's expressive illustrations." * Imogen Russell Williams, The Guardian * "With its numerous laugh-out-loud moments and comical, cartoon-style illustrations made with a few deft strokes of his pen, Alex Latimer has got a winner here." * Jill Bennett, Red Reading Hub *.
