When the most beautiful moose in the forest is captured by an evil trapper, a shy young moose knows that he must take action. He has always been secretly in love with the beautiful moose. Now he will follow her all the way from Canada to the wilds of New York City. He will rescue his true love come what may. But how? Luckily, Professor Owl McFowl has concocted a new formula?an invisibility potion! In this delightfully silly story of magic and adventure with a surprisingly touching core, our moose hero shows us that the truest beauty isn?t visible to the eye?it can only be seen by the heart.

PreS-Gr. 2. In a Canadian forest, a shy moose with oddly curved antlers loves a beautiful moose from afar. Their first conversation, though, is tragically interrupted by an animal trapper, who captures the beauty and takes her away. The he-moose spots the truck's New York City license plates and vows to rescue his beloved. He visits the forest's mad scientist, an owl who equips him with travel directions and an invisibility potion that enables him to pass unseen across the U.S. border and on to New York, where his search takes him through the city's landmarks. At last, in a seedy alley, he locates his darling's captors, and after sharing the potion, the two invisible animals slip away. Haseley's far-fetched tale doesn't maintain a smooth momentum through the journey from forest to an owl's laboratory to the booming city. But Kellogg's delightful pencil-and-paint illustrations of the see-through moose pull the story's elements together. They greatly amplify the silliness, magic, and sweet romance, while the sparkling, snowy scenes make this a good choice for winter read-alouds. Gillian Engberg
