Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review[Gooney's] eccentric outfits and words of wisdom are peppered throughout to keep the story moving along while Thomas's characteristic black-and-white illustrations provide nice visuals. Full of new vocabulary words and information about fables . . . a must for Gooney Bird fans. School Library Journal Lowry nicely individualizes her characters and gets readers interested in their problems. Booklist, ALA If Aesop met Gooney Bird Greene, what would result? Fabulous fables, of course. . . . Gooney's outlandish outfits, take-charge (even bossy) attitude and boisterous spirit continue to be humorously likable--and fabulous. No doubt there'll be a fourth; meanwhile, this one offers a clever writing exercise for a class. Kirkus Reviews "The irrepressible Gooney Bird Green returns to entertain youngsters."
