A little yellow bird teaches Rocket the dog how to read by first introducing him to the "wondrous, mighty, gorgeous alphabet."

After seeing Thistle carrying a pumpkin, Duck and Goose decide they must find one for themselves and search in such places as in a log, in a tree, and under the water. On board pages.

Rocket the dog is excited to discover new words with his teacher, but when they identify a red boot, he does not want to let it go.

Goose is more interested in skating, sledding, and making snow angels than in helping Duck decorate their big Christmas tree.
