Can he learn to be less honk and more heart?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHank 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!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut 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. Now in board book format for the youngest readers!\u003ci\u003eHank Goes Honk\u003c\/i\u003e recounts the brightly illustrated journey of Hank, a constantly honking, balloonpopping 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.--Booklist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHank Goes Honk\u003c\/i\u003e is a tale of rudeness that centers on the actions of Hank, a very rude goose that thinks little about his impact on others around him. Despite his proclivity for alienating others, Hank is actually lonely for friends. As the story progressively chronicles Hank's rude and alienating mannerisms, kids receive an engaging way of absorbing their own impact on the world and others around them - revelations which will be especially nicely enhanced by adult read-aloud participation in Hank's discoveries.--Midwest Book ReviewMaudie Powell-Tuck spends too much of her time in expensive shops looking at clothes and glittery things she can’t afford, and dreaming about owning a pug named Stanley (when she's not writing, of course). She’d love to say that she runs marathons – but that would be a lie.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDuncan Beedie is a best-selling author and illustrator who has been drawing and doodling since childhood, sprawled out on his parents' living room carpet with felt tip in fist. He now sits upright to draw from his studio in Bristol, where he lives with his wife, daughter, and demanding springer spaniel.","brand":"Tiger Tales","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48233214214373,"sku":"NP9781664351820","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781664351820.jpg?v=1767728661","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/hank-goes-honk-isbn-9781664351820","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
