I didn’t like this book because they cut the hen open. I wouldn’t recommend it to my friends.

I didn’t like this story. The man and lady were greedy and they killed the goose to get the golden eggs. This story made me feel very sad.

I liked when the goose laid the golden eggs. They were greedy and wanted to see if the goose was full of golden eggs so they cut him up.
