Once Upon a Goat by Dan Richards, Pictures by Eric Barclay
34 pages
"Once upon a time, a very prim and proper king and queen begged their fairy godmother for a child. They'd prefer a boy, with glowing skin, bright eyes, and two roses for lips...but any kid will do. When they find themselves gifted with a baby goat (also known as a kid) instead, they can't imagine how he'll fit into their lives. But of course, it isn't long before he's part of the royal family." --from the publisher
What a cute book! I love the theme of trading a "perfect" life for a "messy" one that has more family members to love. I think kids will enjoy the story and the illustrations.
