ABOUT THE LAST GOOSE CONCERT by Jaki Fey

She’s twirling in her pretty skirt until the weather wreaks havoc on their plans. Little Freya is sent off alone to deliver the much needed supplies to her geese friends.
The problem is, Freya has never paid attention to the route. she is both nervous and brave as she pulls the heavy cart towards Goosetown. Because she is just a young girl, she makes some unwise choices, but she also meets helpful animals along the way.

At the end of her journey home, she finds Momma waiting with a big hug, hot apple cider and a roaring fire.
