Review: Gregory Goose is on the Loose! In the Jungle


A colourful seek and find board book bursting with cheerful jungle vibes.

Search for Gregory Goose in each double page spread amongst other jungle animals, plants and objects. Each scene has Gregory hidden in a new environment such as in the trees with chimpanzees, a lion’s den, swimming in a river with hippopotamuses and more.

The text gently flows and rhymes, suiting the bright illustrations perfectly. I adore the colourful details and happy expressions on all the animals faces and the last scene featuring a special jungle cake.

Gregory Goose is on the Loose! In the Jungle is would be a great introduction to the jungle and to seek and find books for toddlers. Gregory can also be found in Gregory Goose is on the Loose! On the Moon and Gregory Goose is on the Loose! At the Fair.
