Out of the Woods: A True Story of an Unforgettable Event

(1) K-3 Bond relates a story from 1914 Ontario, when her grandfather, Antonio, lived at a lakeside hotel. A forest fire breaks out, driving everyone toward the only safe place--the lake. As animals, too, make their way into the lake, young Antonio gets a close-up look at every forest creature imaginable. Detailed sketches tinted with muted browns, greens, blues, and oranges create a dreamlike mood.
