A simple, graceful text and majestic illustrations—punctuated with fun facts—transport fledgling naturalists and armchair travelers to the wild North . . . to meet a moose.
With informative sidebars calling out key facts and art that beautifully captures the sweep and teeming stillness of northern wilderness, this nonfiction narrative functions as a friendly guide, leading readers on a breathtaking expedition in search of the largest, grandest member of the deer family. To see a moose—and you’ll really want to see a moose—head to the cold boreal woods and paddle a kayak or canoe along the banks of a lake or river. Quiet, now. Rest your paddle when you spot a big bull moose with a great rack of antlers and a ROAR like a lion. Don’t get too close. If you’re lucky and keep very still, you may feel the splash from a wading moose or spot a protective mother with her gangly, knock-kneed calf. Along the way, you’ll learn about the life cycle, behaviors, and habitat of this most magnificent of land mammals and experience the rewards of quiet patience—and the joys of seeing with eyes and heart wide open.
