A Loon Alone

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Shannon Sycks. A loon chick on a lake in Maine escapes a snapping turtle and other predatory animals aided by his protective mother and his natural instinct to hide. Captivating colored-pencil illustrations realistically express pond life while the fascinating story offers lore about this bird. An appended note includes information on the common loon's physical characteristics, habitat, and migratory patterns.
