Book Nook: The Mountain and the Goat

I recently had a chance to review The Mountain and the Goat. It is a children's book with an unexpected theme.

In the book, the narrator meets a goat who gives him milk and bread, then tells him to plan ahead. Each decision leads to something different, and the book has a very nice, pleasant ending. It's a good, and different, way to show kids that kindness and thinking ahead can go a long way.
