A magnificently funny first picture book by Danny Baker, the popular comedy writer, journalist, radio DJ and screenwriter. Illustrated by rising star Pippa Curnick.
Lucie Goose lives all alone in a house at the edge of the woods. She has never met or spoken to another animal of any sort until… a wolf, bear and lion turn up on her doorstep and go Rraaaarrrrrr! She should start screaming. She should run away. But Lucie Goose isn’t very good at being scared. What will she do?
Introducing a wonderfully charming and funny new picture book from two remarkable talents.
Shortlisted for the Evening Standard Oscar’s First Book Prize.
Reviews
Lucie Goose lived alone and had never seen other animals, until one day a wolf came and roared. She wasn’t scared, and he explained that first he had to roar, then she had to run away, and he would chase her. But she said she wouldn’t do that and instead invited him for a cup of tea and a piece of cake, which he didn’t want. The same thing happened later with a bear and then with a lion. But then all three were afraid of a dragon and ran as fast as they could to Lucie Goose for her cup of tea and cake. This story teaches you not to be afraid of those who roar and to always be kind to everyone.
