Ollie the Stomper

When the newly hatched Ollie joins his gosling friends, he is covetous of the fine boots that Gossie and Gertie wear. As he stomps after them, around the farmyard and through puddles to the pond, he shouts, "I want boots!" In spite of a fabulous solution, Ollie has the last word. Once again, Linda Stephens narrates an appealing story with empathy and an emphatic tone that will appeal to young listeners. Given its delightfully fits-in-your-hand size and engaging illustrations, the print book that is part of the package will enhance the listening experience. A.R. (c) AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine
