Customer Reviews

Authentic Children's Literature

I love reading this book to my daughter! Betsy Bowen stays true to Minnesota, illustrating the common ties that make the North Shore the wonderful place that it is. Bowen's illustrations are the art of life on a page, and should not be missed. An authentic look at traditions of Northern Minnesota from a simple, and beautifully traditional point of view.
