Description
The (very) hungry goat has a big appetite that gets him into all kinds of adventures.

Critic Reviews
“'The Hungry Goat ate just about anything in his path with an appetite that got him into and out of trouble. Short, simple words use rhyme with a distinctive, strong rhythm to verses which provides a clue to the final form the book takes.'”
