  The Golden Goose
Written & illustrated by Barbara Reid

Barbara Reid's Plasticine genius brings a humorous twist and a modern setting to the classic fairy tale!

When Rupert does a good deed, he is rewarded with a golden goose. He takes the bird into town to share his rare discovery. When the innkeeper's daughter tries to steal a feather, she get stuck, as do all the townsfolk - the school bus driver, the barber, and more... until everyone lives happily ever after.

 

"an irresistible retelling... Reid's trademark Plasticine art seems to have reached a new pitch of vivacity and fun."
The Toronto Star
