Talking Animals! Hey, Like Me.
I am a talking dog, which is pretty rare, so I love it when I am able to read about other talking animals, like the goat in Micheal Garland's new picture book, King Puck.
Not only does this goat talk, but he too loves books!
Set against the backdrop of a very unique Irish festival, King Puck, tells the story of a lonely farmer and his companion goat. Farmer Seamus loves his goat, but how he wishes he had someone to talk with about books. Fairies take pity on the lonely farmer and cast a spell that turns his normal goat into a talking goat! Seamus loves having a talking campanion and decides to show him off to the rest of his town by entering him in the town's King Puck Festival. Complete with fairies, enchantment, books, and of course, talking animals, this book is sure to delight.
