Here Comes Gosling!

Froggie can’t wait to meet Goose and Gander’s new baby, Gosling! He and Rabbit spend all day preparing: they bake a cake, toss a salad, and find the perfect picnic spot. Froggie picks out his favorite toys and books to share and even makes up a new song. But when Gosling finally arrives, she takes one look at Froggie and…HOOOOOOONK!

Froggie doesn’t know what to do! Gosling’s not tired or hungry or thirsty, but she keeps crying anyway. Gander and Goose can’t console her. Neither can Rabbit. Just when all seems hopeless, Froggie’s natural charm and great silliness turn Gosling’s tears into smiles and her honks into giggles.
