Serious Goose. Jimmy Kimmel. 2019. [December] 40 pages. [source: Library]
First sentence: This is a serious goose.
Premise/plot:
Jimmy Kimmel introduces readers to a very serious not at all silly
goose in his picture book for young readers. He wrote and illustrated
the book—this shows because they go together splendidly. I couldn’t
imagine one without the other. So the plot is simple, can anybody or
anything turn this serious goose into a silly one?! What will it take to
make this goose giggle or smile?!
My thoughts: I was always
terrible at “Poor, Poor Kitty.” Perhaps even the world’s worst Poor,
Poor Kitty player. Probably because I am totally a silly goose. This one
is good for a couple of laughs. I definitely enjoyed reading it. I
think it would be a good choice for parents to read aloud. I think the
page with the mirror is great fun for the intended age group.
