Boo to a Goose

As you are getting your story time crowd ready to enjoy this story, you MUST teach them to shout, "But I wouldn't say boo to a goose." Now you're all set. Combining her trademark rhyme and repetition, Mem Fox has written a rhythmic, fun read aloud about someone who will do a whole lot of wacky things, but will never say boo to a goose. Imagine reading this one to a rowdy group who will raucously shout out the refrain at the perfect moment. "I'd walk down the street with balloons on my feet," but.......(your turn). As the list of things this person would be willing to do gets longer and longer and more and more outrageous, your curiosity takes over. Just why won't he say the dreaded words to the dreaded goose? So, romp your way through it and you'll get your answer at the very end. Playful and fun. Great read aloud. 32 pages Ages 4-8
