Customer Reviews

The Dragonfly of Lookout Mountain is a summit experience!

This is a beautiful book not only text-wise but also visually. The book is especially noteworthy because it depicts a woman working in the outdoor field of fire detection, thereby presenting the fire-lookout in the story as a wonderful role model. While accurately representing the life of the dragonfly, the book captures the loneliness and drama atop a fire lookout too. I bought a 2nd copy to donate to the local school library. - Written by Kathy Biggs, author of "Common Dragonflies of California," who hopes to meet Judy Hatch some day!
