The Beavers' Busy Year

"Along a stream a dam pops out of the water. Beavers are busy at work! These aquatic mammals have unique traits that aid them in building the perfect lodge to raise young beavers and keep predators away. Mary Holland's vibrant photographs document the beaver's activities through the course of a year. Do these beavers ever take a break? Follow along as the pop through the winter ice to begin the busy year of eating bark, building dams and gathering food just in time for winter to come again.

It's so much more than a picture book... this book is specifically designed to be both a fun-to-read story and a launch pad for discussions and learning. Whether read at home or in a classroom, we encourage adults to do the activities with the young children in their lives."
