Fun rhyming story

Kid the goat is feeling fractious and grumpy about the new fancy coat he got for Christmas. So he doesn't go outside to join the fun (at first) but finds a lesson to learn. Delightful! And the story is done in rhyming! The illustrations by Anna Simeon are detailed, imaginative and FUN. Well suited for reading alone or WITH someone of any age, including ESL, and great for gifting to everyone, but especially to a school, waiting room, or your local public library! I requested and received a temporary uncorrected digital Galley on Thorium PDF from Tommy Nelson via NetGalley.
