misspippireads's review against another edition
4.0
"Opening this book is like sitting down in a canoe, taking up a paddle, and gliding out into the summer beauty of a hidden lake."
The cover flap explains the story very well. If the reader is familiar with the north woods, canoeing, fishing, or enjoying nature, they can sit back and take a deep breath of vacation. The descriptions of animal activity are distinct and true. The image and play of the fish underwater is fun and interesting. The illustrations only add to the words. The paintings feel like the north woods with their murky underwater scenes and impressionistic like backgrounds of the water's edge and animals. I would highly recommend this book for nature lovers or a book for the cabin.
Reviewed from a library copy.
