Lucy Goosey by Margaret Wild
A heartwarming story about a child's fear of the unknown, and how a mother's unconditional love can make anything possible--especially a brave decision
Lucy Goosey has been playing happily in the same pond all her life, but the time has come for her to fly away. She is so terrified of getting lost in the huge sky that she refuses to leave with the others. Is it more terrifying to be alone, or to face one's greatest fear? No matter what happens, Lucy Goosey's mother will always come looking for her--only once she is reassured of this does Lucy Goosey feel brave enough to make the flight.
