Goose In A Hole by Judith Kerr

A charming story of a beautifully brave goose from Judith Kerr, the creator of children’s classics The Tiger Who Came To Tea and the ever-popular Mog series. When the water in Katerina’s pond begins to disappear overnight, she makes the wise decision to follow the leak, and leads her family into an exciting underground adventure. Who knows where the geese will surface next? Meanwhile, the villagers try to solve the problem of the empty pond, and only little Millie Buswell seems aware that its inhabitants are missing too! Will she ever see her favourite goose again?

Praise for The Tiger Who Came to Tea
‘This book has enduring charm and young children will delight in the preposterous notion of a tiger creating mayhem in the house’ Junior Magazine

Praise for Mog the Forgetful Cat:
‘Grandparents are likely to get as much fun out of seeing it again as the new generation of fans just learning to read!’ Choice Magazine‘

Praise for Goodbye Mog:
‘Kerr’s warmth, humour and honesty make this an engaging introduction to a difficult topic’ Financial Times

‘Believable, amusing and moving’ Nursery World

‘A supremely sensitive story’ The Times

‘The best, most consoling book for children on the subject or bereavement…a joy to read’ The Independent on Sunday

Wise, sometimes wistful but ultimately triumphant, this picture book really is something special. Judith Kerr’s previous Mog stories have always hit the highest standards; this one is her best yet: clever, affectionately illustrated and totally life-affirming.’ The Independent

Judith Kerr OBE was born in Berlin. Her family left Germany in 1933 to escape the rising Nazi party, and came to England. She studied at the Central School of Art and later worked as a scriptwriter for the BBC.
 
Judith married the celebrated screenwriter Nigel Kneale in 1954. She left the BBC to look after their two children, who inspired her first picture book, The Tiger Who Came to Tea. Published in 1968 and never out of print in the fifty years since, it has become a much-loved classic and perennial bestseller.
 
Judith was awarded the Booktrust Lifetime Achievement Award in 2016, and in 2019 was named Illustrator of the Year at the British Book Awards. Judith died in May 2019 at the age of 95, and her stories continue to entertain and delight generations of children.
