Orville the moose is a likeable young fellow who tries very hard to do everything right, especially when it comes to taking care of his handsome pair of antlers. They are his pride and joy, but despite all his care, he wakes up one day to find that they are coming loose
Kelly Paul Briggs has written and illustrated the coziest book I have ever read. She makes you want to go and live on a lighthouse island for a while. Her illustrations are so detailed and make you feel like you could really jump into the page and be a part of the scene. I truely loved this book.
Our favorite book this year!

Your book was perfect and easy to recite. The kids loved the rhythm and Orville's big fright.We all learned a lot about antlers on moose. The same things happen when our teeth get loose.The funniest parts were the beezles he ate. We laughed as we read it and thought it was great! Fran knows children well: their love of nonsense, their feeling for rhyme and rhythm. Jim enhances this with his captivating drawings. Who could not love Orville Anderson Tarkington Moose? Great book!
