hartstrings 's review for:

Rascal by Sterling North
4.0

If I had read this book instead of listening, I might have been bored. But...as I didn't this book was beautiful!!! The language flowed with an even, beautiful tempo. North's description of his hometown, and the surrounding forests and streams were appealing enough to make me see the part of Wisconsin he was describing.

The story of the baby raccoon and boy who learn and grow together was touching. I would still recommend this book to children today! It's pace is a little slower, but well worth it!
