We’ve loved this easy read for years in our household, since we received it as a gift when my son was a toddler. My kids took great joy in counting all the crazy goats, and barely noticed the learning process. We all loved seeing what the goats might munch next. If you want a quick yet educational read to enjoy with your young child, look no further than these boisterous goats.
