(4) K-3 Illustrated by Jon Van Zyle. Harlequin ducks, ravens, mosquitoes, and salmon, among other wildlife, are briefly mentioned in this observation of a southern Alaskan river and are described in greater detail, along with their roles in the ecosystem, in a glossary at the back of the book. A smiling, nameless boy in the background detracts from the realistic oil illustrations in this otherwise simple look at a river throughout the seasons.
