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.

Moose Tracks
Seth's stepfather is a game warden hunting for poachers in the north woods. While riding his horse one day, Seth comes face-to-face with the poachers and he witnesses them shooting a moose cow and wounding its calf. They warn Seth not to tell his father, but Seth desperately wants to save the calf. Can he succeed without further endangering his family? This gripping adventure story by Mary Casanova will have readers engrossed until the last page.
