This is a simple farm themed story about the goose in search of a nest to lay her eggs. It turns out the each place she goes to belongs to a different farm animal. There is a good diagram of a farm in this book, not just with a barn and animals, but with the other outbuildings as well. I love the simplicity of the text and the big illustrations that Nancy Tafuri uses.

Jack, the cat, built a perfect nest but with an agenda. He was thinking about the eggs a chicken would lay so he could have an omelet. What he wasn't counting on was the interest of a duck and a goose in the nest. The good thing is that as a result there are three eggs in the nest but the bad thing is that not one of them will leave the nest. When they finally do, the eggs hatch and the babies seek Jack's attention even though he tries to avoid them. In the end, Jack realizes that the nest is perfect but not for the original reason he had thought of.
