Beautiful, uncoventional story of redemption through nature,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Boy Who Ran to the Woods (Hardcover)
This is a well crafted book. In story and illustration, it reminds me of children's books of 30 years ago; the tone is soft tone and colors subdued. Harrison, a wild man of a novelist and poet, tells the story of his youth in northern Michigan and how he came to find peace in the natural world. Pohrt's illustrations are evocative of small town life and the plants and animals in the woods beyond. The book sneaks up on you--the tale is simple, understated, but also strangely comforting and, ultimately, unforgettable.

This review is from: The Boy Who Ran to the Woods (Hardcover)
This is a delightful book. It was recommended by a fellow teacher who knows the author. Because of that connection, the events in the book were even more alive and interesting. It is a story about experiences of the author. I completely enjoyed this book and it is a good read aloud book for second grade on up.
