(3) K-3 When an employee quits, nine-year-old Asa takes his place and leads the mules down the towpath so that his father, a canal boat captain, can make his delivery on time. An unexpected storm adds drama to an otherwise quiet tale, and Yezerski's evocative illustrations highlight the workings of the canal as well as the fall countryside.
