Hank is a super loud, super rude goose, and his friends are fed up! Can he learn to be less honk and more heart?
Hank is one rude goose. He doesn't see anything wrong with interrupting others when they're speaking. He helps himself to the cherries on the top of other people's cupcakes. He makes loud noises in the library and movie theater...and he's upsetting everyone!
But being rude, loud, and obnoxious can't always be fun—in fact, it can be downright lonely. Will Hank find a way to be more considerate of his friends? Kids will love Hank's hilarious antics and silly noises, brought to life with vibrant, whimsical illustrations that pop off the page. Grown-ups will appreciate the lessons of friendship, recognizing others’ feelings, and being considerate of those around us.

Preschool-Grade 2 Hank Goes Honk recounts the brightly illustrated journey of Hank, a constantly honking, balloon-popping goose, as he tries to become less obnoxious (which, the book helpfully points out for younger readers, ""means extremely unpleasant, which means not nice""). With jagged red shapes sometimes silhouetting Hank's honking form and the honks actually staining the ground in his wake, Beedie really captures the destruction of Hank's obnoxiousness. But this is not just a redemption story of a disruptive goose mending his ways to find friends; it's also a story that explains how letting go of bad habits doesn't have to happen in a straight line. Just because Hank returns to his honking ways briefly doesn't mean that he can't do his best to get a little less obnoxious every day, and, even more importantly, it doesn't mean his newfound friends will write him off. The book ends on a cliff-hanger, with the clear message that self-improvement is possible.COPYRIGHT(2024) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
