About the Author:

Martine Kindermans lives in Belgium.

From School Library Journal:

PreS–In this attractive book, a mother goose tells her little gosling: All we need is you and me/to be as happy as can be./And no matter where we go,/I will always love you so. The two walk on a beach, cross the world, climb high and low, and return home. Lovely watercolor washes of corals, yellows, and pinks predominate, with the white geese tenderly playing and traveling together against a barely suggested milieu. Finally, they go off into the sunset, wing in wing, in an illustration a bit reminiscent of the final shot in Chaplin's Modern Times. In the same vein as Sam McBratney's Guess How Much I Love You (Candlewick, 1996) and others, this book could give single parents in particular a good one-on-one story to share with their toddlers. Slight, but made special by its delicate art.–Judith Constantinides, formerly at East Baton Rouge Parish Main Library, LA
