Celebrate love and friendship with the New York Times–bestselling feathered friends Duck & Goose in this sturdy board book, perfect for preschoolers! Now an animated series, available to stream on Apple TV+!

Goose is feeling sad. What does he need to cheer him up? He doesn't need a game of tag. Or to stand on his head. Or a happy song. What he really, really needs... is a hug from a good friend.
