SuitabookGordon the Meanest Goose on Earth
Alex Latimer
- Themes
- Kindness as a catalyst for empathy and redemption: Gordon defines himself as exceptionally mean and upsets people and animals, but Anthony the Piglet’s unexpected gift of a flower unsettles that identity and initiates a move towards empathy, better behaviour and friendship.
- Worth knowing
- Gordon repeatedly upsets people and animals through aggressive and selfish behaviour; this is presented with exaggerated slapstick and cartoon humour.
