Gossie and Gertie (Reader) (Gossie & Friends) Paperback – January 14, 2014

My son just LOVES this book. We read it every single night and have for the past....honestly I don't even know how long it's been. We have read it so many times that he's even changed Gossie's name to Monate and then changed it back again recently (he's 2). But for a parent, it is not a torturous re-read. And when they start to talk it's an easy one for them to repeat after you or describe pictures. Also it's so cheap. Get this for your kid. It's the cutest thing.

Finding books that young children will sit through is very hard and this one with the cute pictures that show so much feeling is very hard. This lovely book does the trick..bright pictures, simple sentences and good friends that is what this book provides.I had checked this book out from the library and my 3 year old grand daughter just fell in love with the book. She would bring it to everyone to read to her. Since I had to purchase a textbook for myself (I decided to get her a copy of her very own,it is to be delivered today)because when it had to be returned to the library she started to cry,because she didn't want to see the book go.We knew that this gem was a hit! Can't wait to see her face when she sees the book again.

I love the Gossie series of books by Olivier Dunrea. This book is a simple, sweet tale of BFFs. I love that although Gossie seems to be the friend in charge to begin with that really both Gossie and Gertie have their own likes and dislikes and both love being with each other.

My daughter loves this whole series - I do, too. All of Olivier Dunrea's work is great. The illustrations are great, and it's a good choice for someone learning to read, too.

Best series of books for very young. As an adult I never tire of reading them to my grands and the simple, colorful artwork is a joy. Excellent choice for baby shower gifts.

My son loves when I read it to him. Is a simple book with catchi phrases. My baby laugh when I read to him

My kids both love reading Dunrea's Gossie (Gertie, Ollie, Gideon, etc.) series. The books are so sweet, the illustrations are adorable, and the kids love the quick pace of the story lines. This book, Gossie and Gertie, is no exception. It's a cute story showing playful interactions between friends. It's simple, but entertaining--and like the other books in the series, this one, too, has become a favorite in our house.

What an adorable set of characters in this board book! My 15 month old son loves this story about two duck friends who go everywhere together.

My toddler insists the big one is Mama and the little one is Baba. She loves boots, and she loves this book. I find “sneaked to the sheep” awkward grammatically, and don’t usually read all the words as they are in the book. It will be good for having conversations about her bossiness when she’s older.

I found out my kindergartener hadn't returned her library book for a few weeks because she loved the book so much and didn't want to let it go. We ended up buying her own and it's still her favourite months later and we've begun buying other books from the collection. They're great little stories with very cute, likeable characters.

so cute

Excellent for ages 2-4

I've read this book to all 3 of my children and they've all loved it! The whole series is great.
