Story Summary (to help us):
- The goose loved to tell tales — she went “tittle-tattle” all over the farm.
- When the duck jumped in the pool, the goose ran off tittle-tattling.
- One day, the bull pushed open the gate and ate apples from the apple tree.
- The goose started tittle-tattling again — so the bull chased her and roared.
- After that, the goose kept her beak shut for
two whole days.
