Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SLJ Starred Review! “This book needs not one breath more for its perfect autumn and winter message.” – School Library Journal Gray Fox wanders alone in the forest at night. The woods are illuminated in the silvery light of the full moon and stars. She gazes around in wonder at the light in the birch grove and stops to look at her reflection in the river. But something calls to her in her reverie. She must return to her den by dawn to care for her kits when they wake. With simple poetry young children will love, Gray Fox in the Moonlight is a journey through a nighttime wonderland that celebrates the love between parents and children. Simple two-color illustrations overflow with light in this evergreen story that illustrates the value of independence in the parental relationship as well as the powerful bond which calls us home from wandering. Gray Fox in the Moonlight revels in the profound beauty of nature. MORE PRAISE FOR Gray Fox in the Moonlight: “This work’s spare text is chosen with expert precision so that the few words have maximum impact. The text’s placement echoes the movement it depicts, making this book rife with early literacy opportunities. The monochromatism of the austere, gray tones doesn’t want for detail and depth. Peterson’s shifts in perspectives throughout create a sense of movement and heighten the immersive aspects of his illustrative style. Somber, contemplative works are often dense with text, whereas this book needs not one breath more for its perfect autumn and winter message. VERDICT: Gray Fox in the Moonlight features simple two color illustrations overflowing with light in this evergreen story about a parent's love for their child.” – School Library Journal, Starred Review “The text matches the fox’s steps so perfectly that readers may feel as though they’re following her home through the woods. But then, that’s the entirety of the story: Gray Fox goes home to her children and falls asleep. There’s no drama here, but if the story were any less spare, readers might not stop to see the wonders along the way.” – Kirkus Reviews

Download or read book What Walks This Way written by Sharman Apt Russell and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2024-09-10 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did a red fox pass this way? Could that be a bobcat print there in the dirt? Do those tracks belong to a domestic dog or a coyote? Combining lyrical memoir with an introduction to wildlife tracking, What Walks This Way explores the joys of learning to recognize the traces of the creatures with whom we share our world. The nature writer Sharman Apt Russell tells stories of her experiences tracking wildlife—mostly mammals, from mountain lions to pocket mice—near her home in New Mexico, with lessons that hold true across North America. With wit and compassion, she guides readers through the basics of identifying tracks and signs, revealing a landscape filled with the marks left by browsing deer, predatory weasels, and inquisitive bears, skunks, and raccoons. Closely observing these traces, Russell also finds community, a sense of place, and a renewed connection with the nonhuman world. She explores the health of mammal populations in North America and questions common wildlife-management practices, calling for new approaches that better reflect current understandings of ecology. Above all, What Walks This Way is a celebration of all the wild animals secretly, stubbornly, and triumphantly roving through our cities, suburbs, and countryside.

Book excerpt: What's that bushy-tailed animal scampering up a tree? It's a gray fox--the only canine that is as comfortable in a tree as it is on the ground. Mother foxes make their dens inside fallen logs or high off the ground in hollow trees. Inside the den, the mother gives birth to her tiny, helpless kits. As the kits get bigger and stronger, they wrestle with one another and pounce on their mother's tail, gaining the skills they need to become great hunters. In this coming-of-age introduction to gray foxes, readers will see how these pups learn how to catch prey and live as adult foxes. The lively text, colorful pages, and exquisite photos are sure to delight and engage emergent readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This story of Peter Looney is based on truth. He was a Sargent in the miltia at Fort Vause in southwestern Virginia. The fort was destroyed by one hundred Indians and some French soldiers. Seventeen men, three women and four girls were taken across the Shannandoah Mountains where the men had to walk up creeks, through dense forest and sleep on the ground with nothing to cover them. The women and girls were allowed to ride, but they too had to sleep on the ground, endure rain storms, heat and whatever food the Indians gave them. If their shoes wore out they walked barefoot. This was a trip of several weeks before they were taken across the Ohio River. Not everyone lived to see the end of their journey. They were divided up among the different tribes. Most were never heard from again. But Peter was adopted by a chief and lived to tell his story.
