어느날 거위인 수지는 둘레를 돌아보다가 자기와 다른 모든 거위들이 모두 비슷하게 생겼다는 것을 깨닫게 됩니다. 수지는 다른 거위들과는 달랐으면 좋겠다고 생각했지요.박쥐와 같이 거꾸로 매달려서 날개를 파닥거리고, 투칸새와 같이 꽥꽥 큰 소리를 내고, 팽귄과 같이 얼음 위에서 미끄러지고, 기린과 같이 키가 크기 위해서 목을 쭉 뻗고, 코끼리 같이 코로 물을 뿜어서 첨벙거리고, 캥거루 같이 점프를 하고, 타조 같이 빨리 달리고, 물개 같이 물 속에서 수영을 하고, 사자와 같이 으르렁 소리를 낼 수 있고...
수지는 잠자는 사자에게 다가가서 으르러~엉꽹꽹 사자 울음를 흉내냈습니다. 이상한 울음소리 때문에 잠에서 깨어난 사자는 거위를 잡아 먹으러 달려들자, 깜짝 놀란 거위는 날개를 파닥거리고, 꽥꽥 큰 소리를 내고, 미끄러지고, 목을 쭉 뻗고, 물웅덩이에서 첨벙거리고, 점프를 하고, 달리고, 수영을 하면서 거위 무리 속으로 도망을 갔습니다. 수지는 다른 거위들과 다르지 않는 것이 더 좋겠다고 생각합니다. 하지만 때때로 수지는 으르러~엉꽹꽹 이상한 울음소리를 내서 다른 거위들의 시선을 끄네요...

From the Publisher
Simple, boldly colored, and energetic, Petr Horacek's illustrations follow the story of a silly goose in search of a brand-new style - at least some of the time.
Silly Suzy Goose is just like all the other geese. But how she wishes she could hang upside-down like a bat or stretch up high like a giraffe! And wouldn't it be wonderful to jump, jump, JUMP like a kangaroo? Suzy Goose wanders farther and farther from her flock, visiting with animals that are very different from her. But when Suzy meets up with a cranky lion, she learns there may just be some advantages to blending in with the crowd!
Child Magazine
Sigh. Suzy Goose longs to stand out among a flock of identical white geese. She muses, "If I was a bat, I could hang upside down and flap my wings." Alas, those webbed feet just don't cut it, she realizes, while dangling precariously from a branch. She has another idea, but her faux roar prompts an annoyed lion to chase her back to the flock, where she thankfully blends into the crowd. Horacek's large, bright illustrations exude energy and humor. And lest you think this is a lesson in conformity, Suzy does get the last word: "RROARRHONK!"

Publishers Weekly
Birds of a feather may flock together, but Suzy Goose is sick and tired of it: "I wish I could be different, she thought." Her species envy leads her to a series of improbable, comical encounters with animals big and small: she hangs upside-down with a velvety brown bat, gets a piggyback ride from an ostrich and swims with a seal. Horacek, working in mixed-media and cut-paper collage, sticks to cleanly outlined, relatively simple shapes, but his energized textures bring to mind Eric Carle's work: the ostrich's feathers fan out in a flurry of white and black brushstrokes that evoke an almost palpable downiness, while the seal's mostly submerged body seems to melt into a murky green sea. Suzy finally pushes her luck too far when she tries to rouse a magnificent orange lion with an aspirational "Rroarrhonk!" (Hor cek amusingly zooms in on the lion's perturbed face), but she manages to make it back to her gaggle with her spunk intact. The text may be bare-bones ("If I was an ostrich, I could run really fast"), but the poster-like impact of the pictures, combined with Suzy's featherbrained adventure scheme, should strike a chord with young audiences.
Children's Literature
Suzy Goose would like to be different in some way from all the other geese around her. She thinks of all the things she could do if she were something else, from hanging upside down as a bat to squawking as a toucan, or splashing like an elephant to jumping like a kangaroo. When she thinks about roaring like a lion, however, right under a lion's nose, the lion does not like it "at all." Suzy tries all the activities of the other creatures she has admired to get away from him as fast as she can. "Just in time," she joins all the other geese, so the lion can't tell her from the others. Sometimes it is better not to be different, she thinks, but her final "but not always" leaves open the possibility of more adventures. The simple, repetitive text printed in large, assertive type, offers the artist a delightful excuse to use mixed media for page-size pictures of the inquisitive goose and her encounters. The text forms part of the page designs, adding the final comic touch as Suzy's "Rroarrrhonk!" stimulates the dramatic chase and, at the end, her expression of individuality.
School Library Journal
Suzy Goose looks around and wishes she could be different. The first spread justifies her problem as it is impossible to identify her in the sea of duplicate geese. In those that follow, she visits other animals and samples ways to be different. "If I was a giraffe, I could STRETCH up high." "If I was an ostrich, I could RUN really fast." Pages of "If I was" instead of "If I were" will drive grammar purists crazy, but the scratchy mixed-media illustrations of Suzy trying out each animal's persona and environment make the spreads tactile and pleasurable. When she encounters a lion, she tries a roar ("Rroarrhonk!"), which enrages him. Using some of the moves picked up along the way, the goose hurries back to the safety of the other geese. The close call convinces her that a group has its advantages, but she continues to stand out with her "Rroarrhonk!" Animal movements and sounds, along with the large, bright pictures and interesting compositions, make this an attractive choice to share with young audiences.
Kirkus Reviews
Suzy Goose looks like all the other geese, but she wishes she could be different. "If I was a bat, I could hang upside down and FLAP my wings." "If I was a penguin, I could slip and SLIDE." For each creature that she wishes she could be-toucan, giraffe (vertical spread), elephant, ostrich, seal-she mimics its characteristic action or sound. When she ROARHONKS at a cranky lion, he doesn't like it and chases her. Suzy isn't totally silly. She uses all of the movement styles of the animals she's met-running, splashing, sliding-and gets back just in time to the flock-where she's camouflaged by all the other geese. Attractive mixed-media illustrations, and a well-designed cover, utilize bright colors, textures and size contrasts to energize the spare shapes. A wry twist on the familiar theme of wanting to be different, Suzy isn't such a silly goose after all, though it would have been nice if the text had used the subjunctive properly.
