Product Details

Praise

“The artwork abounds with intriguing details. . . . A volume that invites readers to view Walden as ‘an inspiration for Thoreau/ a harvest for Tudor/ a bounty for both.'”—Publishers Weekly

“Cline-Ransome introduces both men and their connections to Walden Pond through poetic text that spans the seasons. . . . Beautifully illustrated. . . .”—Booklist

“Cline-Ransome adroitly uses parallel phrasing to underscore the differences and similarities linking these men, whose public images radically evolved. . . . Yazdani expertly ­depicts ice-cutting, storage, and shipping, using bold compositions and perspectives. . . . This unusual and ­striking double portrayal will appeal to nascent nature-lovers and embryo entrepreneurs.”—School Library Journal

“The colorful illustrations articulate the story and are further complemented by the placement of the text on the page. Reminiscent of poetry arrangements, the composition of each page builds the story and engages the reader to want to learn more.”—School Library Connection

“Grist for thoughtful readers. . . .”—Kirkus Reviews
