THE BEST!

this book was litterly the best ive ever read and it even inspired me to rase some geese of my own.

Fly Away Home . . .

Wanderfull ! I have just bought this book at the store just five houers ago and I am already on page 63 ! This is a story of Amy and her birds . Amy finds some eggs near her house . Rescues them and helps them hatch . She then asks her dad if she can keep her Gooslings and he says yes . But the problem is that they are sooner or later going to want to fly south and they need someone to show them how . Will Amy be able to teatch her geese to follow her dad before It's to late ?
