THE CANADA GOOSE Judith Drynan. Illustrated by Laurie McGaw. Toronto, Horizon Publishing, c1981. unpaged, paperbound boards, $10.95. ISBN 0-919157-17-3. Grades 2-6. Reviewed by Lorraine Douglas. Volume 10 Number 4. 1982 November. In this bizarre and unappealing tale based on an operetta, The Miseries, a group of glum Canadians under the spell of the Wizard of Woe meet the Motto, a boy dressed in a T-shirt labelled "From Sea to Sea." Motto and the Children of Canada then get the Canada Goose to break the spell. The heavy-handed message is accompanied by such dreadful verses as          I'm not ashamed to say out loud,          That being a Canadian makes me          proud!          I'm not ashamed to let you see          That I am a Canadian. Look at me.          Look at me! I'm a Canadian          Joined to a Canadian, here I stand!          Look at me! I'm a Canadian!          Joined to all Canadians across the land! Coloured illustrations by Laurie McGaw depict caricatured characters in this piece of nationalistic didactism. Lorraine Douglas, Winnipeg P. L., Winnipeg, MB.
