Gordon Goat is a simple story about a goat who can't find anywhere for food. This book is simple to follow and easy to read, although the story is repetitive and not particularly imaginative. Some readers may not be engaged with the story because of this, although others may empathise with Gordon.
The book contains a page on independent reading in the back to allow parents to support their child. The page prompts certain questions so that parents can aid the reader's comprehension.
