About This Book

One day young Marici wishes for a new friend, and along comes a beautiful goose. Their meeting is part magic, part fable, and part love. Based on an ancient Chinese tale, the poetic text is gloriously illustrated by Caldecott Honor recipient Stephen T. Johnson. Poet Gary Snyder contributes beautiful Chinese calligraphy to make this a book to treasure.
