My 3yo daughter picked this book at the library, brought it to me and told me it was a mama book. She was right.

Sean enjoyed the lush pictures of the Minnesota north woods. This would be a fun book to read before going to a cabin in real life.

I read this book out loud to a class of 4th graders as part of our week of talking about summer plans. They were excited to see mentions of places in Minnesota and were able to connect to activities the main character does that they have also done. This book could be used as a mentor text when teaching metaphor, as many of the pages begin with "I am a _____". The illustrations were beautiful and I was able to connect many of the experiences of the main character to my childhood summers.
