What is Goose in a hole about?
When the village pond suddenly drains away, Katerina the goose and her family follow the disappearing water and tumble into an unexpected underground adventure. As they travel through hidden tunnels, nobody knows where they will appear next. Back above ground, the villagers try all sorts of ingenious ways to refill the pond, while Millie Buswell worries about her favourite goose. Will Katerina find her way home, and will the village discover where the water—and the geese—have gone?
