(2) 4-6 Dewey's account is a mix of journal narratives, factual interludes, letters to friends and family, sketches of animal life and landscapes, and color photos. She carefully documents her encounters with a variety of natural phenomena and captivating animals. Her sketches of birds, especially, are effective in portraying animal behaviors. The focus is on Dewey's impressions of the land and its inhabitants when she's out on the ice. Bib.
