YOU SILLY GOOSE

When Emily's goslings hatch, her good friend George (a mouse) brings a warning--""I have seen the fox""--and eavesdropper Lulu leaps to a truly foolish conclusion: with his big ears and bright eyes, George himself must be the fox, ""come to eat us all!"" While Emily sensibly ignores her, Lulu goes on squawking until the real fox turns up, only to be bravely outwitted by little George. With wonderfully clean, appealing collage art, a graceful, deftly honed text, and a real plot that--for all its brevity and simplicity--has suspense and a satisfying denouement, another winner from the creator of Mouse Count (1991, ALA Notable).
