Synopsis
On a legendary lake in the wilds of Ontario, Canadian naturalist R.D. Lawrence was determined to feel the very soul of the wilderness. Then one day he sighted a balled-up bundle of fur about to be attacked by a swooping hawk and by making a terrific racket with the paddle of his canoe he scared the hawk off and rescued the tiny frightened animal - a trembling beaver "kit" that fit in the palm of his hand. This is his true story of nurture and love, instinct and survival, as Paddy enriches the life of his mentor - then is drawn inexorably toward the lake, and his own kind.
