The first tragedy I ever read. 😭
pickSteven Rinella is a great story teller for his topic. In the process of telling his tale of going on a hunt for a buffalo in Alaska. He also tells the history and prehistory of the American Bison. It‘s best to hear narrated by the author. Endlessly interesting and engrossing.
so-so4✨I remember watching a classic movie of this book a long time ago. I just could not remember the ending. A young boy and his father respect the land and the land owner that allows them to live there. One day Danny finds himself drawn to a beautiful dog. He trains him and cares for him as they navigate through the dangers that surround them. Specifically, from Old Majesty a tough bear in the area. I found out this is a series too.
pickA very interesting Audiobook about the long hunters and the European deer skin trade out of what would become Kentucky and the Ohio Country during a 14 year period between 1761 and 1775. Long hunters including Daniel Boone. A trade that started from cattle disease in Europe and ended by the American Revolution which ended deer skin demand in England. This a story of the opening of the first far west.
This is a crazy photo...

Ticked another one off that has been hanging around my currently reading pile for some time...
My neighbors are big game hunters and today I came home to a massive moose head drying on the lawn. At least they hunt for food, not sport.

Review:
This book has black and white illustrations that follow along the text very well. If the text says something, the illustrations often say more. It has a good flow that is happy, with ups and downs, and a happy ending.
Blurb:
This book would need a bit more time to be read, but I think it would be great for k-3rd.
