Classification: Children's / Teenage fiction: Nature and animal stories
Reviews
As soon as the story begins we know Gertie is in trouble because she refused to leave when her family migrated. We really want things to get better for her; but she's pushed to the limit as she searches for her family, forever regretting her original decision.
Through Gertie, we can see how serious it can be when we don't listen to parents but on the bright side, we see how trusting her instincts not only keeps Gertie out of danger but helps her travel the right path to happiness.
Written with charm and gentle humour, (I love the butterflies with boots on!), and with gorgeous illustrations this is a delightful story that can help you talk about and teach important life lessons to every primary aged child. It would be a useful resource for every primary school library.

Description
A heartwarming animal adventure about courage, migration, and finding your way home.
What happens when a little goose gets left behind?
In the second heart-warming adventure in the Gertie Goose series, young readers join Gertie, a determined but inexperienced goose who accidentally misses the great migration with her family.
Lost far from home, and finding herself in Scotland, Gertie must listen to her inner goose and discover the courage within herself. With no map, no flock, and no clear destination, she sets off on an unforgettable journey to who-knows-where, learning along the way that sometimes getting lost helps you discover who you really are.
As Gertie travels through new places and unexpected challenges, she grows from a headstrong little gosling into a truly confident goose. Will trusting her instincts help her find her family again?
Perfect for children who love animal adventures, migration stories, and uplifting tales about courage and self-belief, this beautifully told story encourages young readers to trust themselves and keep going even when the path ahead isn’t clear.
Gertie Goose’s journey is a gentle and inspiring story about resilience, independence, and finding your way home.
