Each time she got frightened (it happened a lot), she would get dizzy and faint on the spot!

Jilly Goat is the only fainting goat on the ranch-and the other brave goats never let her forget it. They laugh. They munch her oats. And when a sneaky wolf begins lurking nearby, Jilly discovers something surprising: the very goats who tease her are hiding in the hay right beside her.

Then the biggest event of the year is announced-the Great Ranch Race.

Remembering that everyone has fears, Jilly gathers her courage, steps out of the hay, and walks to the starting line with her heart pounding and knees wobbling.

And when Jilly does what fainting goats do best...

...she just might become the hero no one expected.

Featuring whimsical, laugh-out-loud illustrations by McKenna Alan, Jilly Goat is a funny, encouraging children's picture book that families, teachers, librarians, and young readers will enjoy again and again.
