Reviews
Kindergarten-Grade 4-Set sometime after the War of 1812, this story tells of a family who leaves New York to establish a homestead in Ohio. When they arrive, the area is covered with massive trees, and it is up to Pa to clear the land. Told from the perspective of a young boy, this is a heartwarming account of the everyday lives of settlers. He describes the clearing of the trees, dinners, helping to build a log cabin, discovering and cutting down a "honey" tree, the surprise appearance of a bear, and the arrival of neighbors. Richly textured oil-and-acrylic paintings capture the mood of the seasons and the darkness of the dense forest. Each illustration is noteworthy for the quality of light that shines down through the trees to illuminate the characters and the action. The wonderful warmth of family love and unity is enhanced by golden earth tones. Changing seasons are dramatically noted by powerful color shifts. A satisfying glimpse into the past.
