Oh, what a delight! Cute, inspirational, delightful text, illustrations, process and conclusion! Demonstrating working together in friendship and especially looking for new possibilities when situations don't turn out as expected: don't grumble, do something new.

Goat on the Go: Scout's Rainy Day is a charming, heartwarming read that my preschooler loved! The illustrations are bright, cheerful, and full of personality—Scout the goat is instantly lovable.

The story is simple yet engaging, teaching a sweet lesson about finding adventure and fun even when the weather isn't perfect. It’s written with a wonderful rhythm that makes it a joy to read aloud. It held my little one's attention from beginning to end, which is no small feat! A definite five stars and a must-have for any young child's bookshelf.

This book is absolutely adorable

I love how Scout the Goat gets to feel and express his emotions and no one judges him for it. He's (reasonably) disappointed that he can't go to the fair, and instead of making him feel silly for it, his friends try to comfort him, and then come up with an alternative to the fair - first without Scout, who is given space to experience his feelings, but letting him join in as soon as he feels ready to.

The illustrations are very cute as well, with nice and bright colours and lots of cute animals.

This book was a hit at my house! Scout the Goat is so excited to travel to the fair with his friends, but rain derails their plans and they are forced to stay in the barn - leading them to create new games and finding fun in a different way than they were expecting for the day.

After we finished reading, my 5.5 year old and I had a discussion about being flexible, and understanding that sometimes plans change but we can still have fun - it just might look different than our original idea.

The illustrations were very cute, the story was cute and we will definitely be checking out other titles from this series.

Thank you to Netgalley for the ARC.

My 4 year old had a lot of fun with this book. I think it addressed some feelings and behaviors that we’ve been encountering lately. This book made it fun to open that door to talk about everything that’s been going on. My 1.5 year old really enjoyed the imagery. I’ll be checking out more of these books.
