title: Duck & Goose, It's Time for Christmas!
author:  Tad Hills 
description: PreS-KThe adorable Duck and Goose are back. Decked out in brightly colored wooly caps, the intrepid Goose tries his hand (well, wing) at all kinds of winter activitiescatching snowflakes, sledding, making snow angels and elaborate snow geese and snow fortswhile Duck tries to keep him focused on what really matters. Because, of course, it is really time for Christmas, which is represented by the birds decorating a tree. It seems a little sad that Duck is such a killjoy, stopping Goose from enjoying his winter fun, but that's a minor quibble. And the cover glitters! Cheery holiday fare for pre-readers.<i>Mara Alpert, Los Angeles Public Library</i><br /> Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.

  Ab o u t Christmas at the Dog & Duck
  Ellie Browne has left behind her high-flying job in London to return to
  the charming Buckinghamshire village of Little Leyton. Working shifts
  at The Dog and Duck and running her own doggy-day-care
  business, Ellie’s looking for a much simpler way of life and a good
  old fashioned Christmas.
  But Little Leyton’s landscape is changing; Johnny Tay, Ellie’s ex,
  wants to pick up where they left off; sultry property developer Max
  Golding, has moved into the village and is ruffling feathers; and
  rumour has it that the pub, which holds a special place in Ellie’s
  heart, might be sold. Suddenly, life’s looking a whole lot more
  complicated…
  Can Ellie juggle her emotions and commitments in time to celebrate
  Christmas?
