Customer Reviews

By far my favorite Bruchac book

I have read this book in the classroom and the children and I love it. It really captures their attention. They get a kick out of turtle hanging on to beavers tail. They actually ask if I will read it again. I highly recommend this to any grade school teachers.

Great story about cooperation and sharing!

I can't wait to share this book with my students! I was looking for pre-school level books for our Pond Life unit! This one is so cute and teaches more than what I expected! Love it!
