Brief reviews and thoughts about children's and young adult books by Minnesota authors (or illustrators), or about Minnesota. If I get the urge, it may also include ideas for using the books in the classroom. The emphasis is on books published since 1995, but don't be surprised if an oldie-but-goodie slips in occasionally.

If You Want to See a Caribou
Quiet free verse by Phyllis Root and beautiful color woodblock prints by Jim Meyer unite here to tell the story of an adult and child who explore an island in Lake Superior as they search for caribou. Additional information about woodland caribou is available at the end of the book. This would be a nice addition to a unit on Minnesota wildlife.
