Silly Tilly
What's Silly Tilly About
“Tilly is not an ordinary goose. She takes her baths in apple juice. She wears a pancake as a hat. She tries to ride the farmer’s cat.”But the barnyard animals complain that she’s too silly. When she stops entertaining her friends with her antics, the farm becomes a quiet and unhappy place. David Slonim’s acrylic, pencil, and ballpoint pen illustrations add to the hilarity in this story about a one-of-a-kind silly goose.

The Creatives Behind the Book
Eileen fell in love with words and decided to become a writer as a young child at Sellers Memorial Library. She is the author of many children’s books, along with being a mother and a grandmother, and currently lives with her husband, Jerry Spinelli, who is also an author in Pennsylvania. When she is not writing books (which she does longhand, and then on an electric typewriter), she enjoys drinking tea, picking herbs, trying on hats and star-gazing with her husband.
David Slonim is the author and illustrator of He Came with the Couch, a 2006 Bright Horizons Top Three Books of the Year selection; Oh, Ducky; and I Loathe You. He has illustrated more than fifteen other books, including Moishe’s Miracle by Laura Krauss Melmed, which was named one of the top ten children’s books of 2000 by The New York Times. He lives in Indiana with his wife and their four children.
