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.

Utterly Otterly Day
In the newest collaboration of Mary Casanova and Ard Hoyt, this is the story of a young otter who believes he's big enough to explore the world on his own. After several close calls, Little Otter realizes that the best and safest place is at home in the den with his family. Funny pictures and lots of word play will make this a popular choice with early readers.
