Acorn Magic

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Donna Ruff. Simon and his grandmotherly neighbor, Mrs. Potter, from The Missing Sunflowers, go camping to bird-watch. Simon, busily intent on collecting acorns, misses all the wildlife until the next morning when he comes face to face with a moose. Intensely colored acrylics blend accuracy with mood, adding further interest to the quiet story of two nature lovers.
