The Story of the Forest Hospital: The Day the Goslings Came

by Minoru Taketazu

illus. by Jun Okamoto

Four newly hatched goslings are brought by well-meaning children to a farm vet who is known to help animals injured in the wild. The panicking vet tries to return them to the nest but it is too late—the mother goose has gone and the task of raising the goslings now falls to him. This is a tender and compelling tale of growth and determination, told in Taketazu’s distinctive style and brought to life with charming illustrations.
