ILLUSTRATOR: Gozde Eyce
PUBLISHER: The Little Press/2024

When Goat gets scared…
            Aaaa!
            CLUNK!
Goat faints.

This early reader in picture book format introduces children to friends Goat and Turkey. Goat wears earmuffs to avoid hearing scary loud noises because loud noises make him faint. As you can imagine, wearing earmuffs all the time can create some situations that lead to misunderstandings and mishaps and a lot of fainting! GOAT’S BOAT WON’T FLOAT will appeal to young readers for its colorful and expressive illustrations by Gozde Eyce and its digestible, engaging, and humorous text by Kim Larson. I think kids will love this Goat & Turkey story and will be looking for the next adventure soon after!
