One long summer holiday, Fred insists that she, Rowley and Rabbit buy a strange old board game in the Salvation Army op shop. Instead of the Noah's Ark that Rabbit has his heart set on, the children buy The Game of the Goose. It leads them all into danger, and each child must perform an act of salvation.

Ursula Dubosarsky
Author · 25 books
Ursula Dubosarsky is an award-winning author of numerous books for children and young adults. About The Golden Day, her first book with Candlewick Press, she says, "The little girls watch, wonder, respond, change, and grow—and then their childhood is gone, forever. This element of the story, I suppose, is at least partly autobiographical. But, as I say—all of our teachers come home safe and sound in the end." Ursula Dubosarsky lives in Australia.
