Gary the Stinky Goose is a laugh-out-loud tale about a goose with a gassy problem and a big heart. Poor Gary just wants friends, but his farts keep getting in the way. When bullies steal the ball at school, Gary decides it’s time to be brave. With a rumble in his tummy and a very stinky plan, he shows everyone that courage (and a little wind!) can change everything.
Packed with humour and a powerful message, this story celebrates kindness, friendship, and the importance of including everyone – no matter how different they may be.
Inspired by his nephew Oisín, who has cerebral palsy, and his years as a special needs assistant, author Eric Roberts shares a joyful message of inclusion, kindness, and friendship – farts and all!
The book is wonderfully illustrated by Andy Wood.
