When eight-year-old Paul went to on a road trip with his dad and uncle, he expected some adventures. What he didn't expect was to make a friend with a wild animal that would lead him to his calling in life. Join Paul on his embarkment into the Canadian wilderness, where he emerges with an unlikely companionship and a newfound sense of purpose. This true story is one of compassion, courage, and dedication-and is an absolute inspiration for readers of all ages! "I am deeply touched by this story of Bucky and me. Patty Shenker has captured a very important time in my childhood, specifically a time that set the foundation for my life's work. Seventy years later, I still fondly remember my little friend and the fun days we spent together in his pond. Her words, beautifully illustrated by David Walega, demonstrate that when a child is touched by the wild, it is a lasting and powerful connection." -Captain Paul Watson
