Step beyond the nursery rhyme and meet the goose behind the legend.

In Father Goose: A Memoir — My Life with Mother, the world’s most famous honker finally sets the record straight. From his extraordinary hatching in a not-quite-golden egg to his rise as the bard of Nurseryland — and the scandals, triumphs, and tender moments in between — Father Goose tells all with humor, heart, and just a hint of feathered pomp.

At its core, this is a love story: of rhyme, of legacy, and of the quiet partnership with Mother Goose that shaped a life. Rich with playful verse, satirical wit, and moments of surprising reflection, this memoir invites readers young and old to laugh, ponder, and perhaps find their own voice amid the reeds.
