Meet a very cute little gosling! Written by the Julia Donaldson, author of The Gruffalo, and stunningly illustrated by the award-winning Sara Ogilvie, Gozzle is a funny and heartwarming story about family and growing up.

It's springtime. Bear has woken up hungry and finds a lost egg outside his cave. Breakfast? No! Out hatches Gozzle, a very sweet little gosling who is convinced that Bear must be her daddy – and that she should be able to climb, dig and eat honey just like him.

Follow Bear on his journey from reluctant carer to parent in this heartwarming and joyous picture book about what home and family truly mean.

A laugh-out loud story from the creators of the bestselling picture books, The Detective Dog, winner of the Books Are My Bag Readers' Award, and The Hospital Dog, winner of the Indie Book Awards.
