This delightfully quirky children’s book from 1979 is a collaboration between two celebrated authors of the era. Frank Asch’s imaginative storytelling and James Marshall’s whimsical illustrations combine to create a humorous tale about a mischievous goose who wreaks havoc in a grocery store. Asch, known for his offbeat humor and creative wordplay in books like “Moongame” and the Moonbear series, crafts a narrative that will engage young readers with its playful language and outrageous situations. Marshall’s distinctive artistic style, featuring expressive anthropomorphized animals, brings the zany antics to vibrant life. This well-loved classic captures the irreverent spirit of 1970s children’s literature and holds a cherished place in many childhood memories. Despite its worn cover, this affordable copy offers collectors a chance to own an enduring piece of the era’s imaginative storytelling.
