Juvenile fiction about Mason the beaver learning a lesson in change. Children will love this wonderful, easy to follow story.
It keeps the interest of the audience and reader. Children can identify with its context and plot. The story teaches that
when faced with conflict we must question it and get down to the matter, so that the same mistakes won't continue to be made.
Although unwanted change may be frightening, with the help and support of some special friends, the consequences may surprise
you.
The bilingual English-Spanish text is educational and fun for monolinguals.
A glossary of words is also included.
The illustrations were appropriate to the
storyline and wonderfully told the dilemma of the forest creatures.
