Hi Loanna,

This is a charming poem for kiddies and kids at heart. I love the way you wove the message into the story and the ending put a big smile on my face. Simply delightful!

Hugs,
Lou

Bless him! What a lovely little story. Children will love this one, Loannalois. It is beautifully written, with a bouncy rhythm, and a lovely moral in the story. Excellent. Good luck in the contest. :) Sandra

The poem flows smoothly to tell the story having a lesson for all. People tend to ingnore their own but are critical about weaknesses of others. It is a case of the pot calling the kettle black. Best of luck for the contest.

This is a story with one or two messages for the younger audience - for the older audience too, for that matter! We had a goat for a short while. A very short while! She was a terror. Our neighbour named her Vindy (short for Vindaloo - a warning of what she might become!). In fact we eventually found her a good home in a large flock. I guess she was just lonely!

I enjoyed the story of the naughty goat Gabriel and its moral lesson. There's always a reason why people behaved the way they're behaving. It is not always healthy to jump at conclusions. I like the metaphor of the goat giving us insights into our own human foibles.

Hi, Loanna,

What a fun story poem. A bit of a lesson in bullying and making friends.

Cute artwork. He does have that stubborn goat look about him. LOL

Good luck in the contest.

Cheers & Blessings

An ornery disposition can always lead to trouble. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very interesting read. There is very good imagery.

The lesson is never assume you know the answer. It's better to lhave an open mind to why someone wears or does what he does. A great story with an excellent moral. Nice rhyming too. Well crafted. Les

Boy can they jump. Hubby won't let me have one-he says they are 'dumb' but we both know they are very smart...This one had a great tempo that moved me along very well.
thanks for a great read-and a great lesson
