That is NOT a Good Idea!

Narrated by prolific author and illustrator Mo Willems, this animated adaptation of his 2013 picture book is framed as an old-time filmstrip being watched by adorable giggly baby geese. The story follows Hungry Fox, who meets Plump Goose and asks if the lady would like to go for a stroll. When she responds positively, the audience of little geese voice their doubts, yelling “that is NOT a good idea!” This peanut gallery gang continues to respond unfavorably, arguing that it is really, really, really not a good plan for Plump Goose to follow Hungry Fox into the deep dark woods…into his kitchen…to help him boil soup water. But there's a surprise in store—for the viewer! Also including a read-along option and a “Team Mo” featurette by the writer's daughter, Trixie Willems, this fun short—winner of the 2016 Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Children's Video and an ALSC Notable Children's Video selection—is highly recommended.
