This delightful sequel to Caldecott Medalist Roger Duvoisin's Petunia takes the foolish goose on a wild goose chase. Petunia only wants what she doesn't have. Convinced that she'll find tastier grass for her snacks beyond her home on Mr. Pumpkin's farm, she ventures far afield. After close encounters with some wild animals who are looking for a tasty snack of their own, she rushes home—to the best green grass she's ever tasted! Originally published in 1958 and long unavailable, this timeless tale works equally well as a read-aloud to young children or as a story slightly older children can enjoy reading all by themselves.

I have four grown up children 27-37 years old now, this book was an all time favourite with them, and it taught them that the furthest fields are not always the greenest. Even now Petunia is referred to when this is found to be the case. It was read many many nights, and I kept having to renew the library ticket. If my memory serves me right, the story goes along, and somewhere someone says 'the thief' these words had to be said and said again. Thoroughly recommend this book, and will be buying it to have around for my new grandchild (its father was the one most enthralled with Petunia). The first time around it was out of my price range.

I love this book! It's one of my favorite Children's book. The moral of the story....the grass isn't always greener than where you are now. I think all children need to hear this book, many adults could do well to learn this lesson.
