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.

Looking for a Moose
Four children set out through the woods to find a moose. When they don't find any, theo also look in a swamp, in the bushes, and up a rocky hillside. The rhyming text by Phyllis Root and sneaky moose hiding in Randy Cecil's illustrations, make this a nice hide-and-seek story for young children and early readers.
