Starting right at the beginning, with the eggs, his journey takes him from the incubator all the way to the airstrip, where he must attempt to teach the geese to fly as part of an ambitious scientific research initiative for the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology, which tracks animal migrations around the world. For the next eleven months, we follow the newly minted dad as he takes the goslings on daily swims in the lake, tracks them down when they go astray, and watches their personalities develop: feisty, churlish, and lovable. Packed with charm and humor, \u003cem\u003ePapa Goose\u003c\/em\u003e quickly draws us into the adventure as Gloria, Nemo, and the rest of the crew conquer land, water, and air.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Greystone Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/18\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781771643610\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.60h x 5.50w x 1.00d","brand":"Michael Quetting","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36668336406684,"sku":"9781771643610","price":21.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_56cc7daa-2e7b-4396-bad1-ddb83d588689.jpg?v=1603917277","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/papa-goose-one-year-seven-goslings-and-the-flight-of-my-life-9781771643610","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
