Visiting Aunt Sylvia's: A Maine Adventure

32 pp. | Down East | November, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-89272-523-0 $$15.95
(4) K-3 In a book that will be of regional interest, a girl describes her family's visits to an aunt's house deep in the Maine woods. The straightforward text and realistic (though generic-looking) watercolors aptly convey the varying natural scenery, wild animals, food preparations, and indoor and outdoor activities that are involved in visits to Aunt Sylvia's during the different seasons of the year, from fall to summer.
Reviewer: Jennifer M. Brabander
