Reviews

This beautifully illustrated nonfiction picture book uses evocative poetic language paired with ink and colored pencil drawings on tinted paper. Soft and realistic, it reveals a "poetry in nature" using the same satisfying cadence and repetition as "This Is the House that Jack Built." It's a pleasure to read aloud. . . Even the endnotes are fascinating. . . this book is a window to the natural world that will be valuable for many years to come.
--School Library Connection (starred review)

Hunter's ink-and-colored pencil illustrations have a scratchy style that is well suited to the beavers' pelts, their watery surroundings, and the other animals that share their habitat. Careful observers will be well rewarded by the tiny details.
