Join the Bear, the Moose, and the Beaver (and an adorable unnamed bird) as they navigate life in the forest and the roles they play in their habitat. Read as the Bear, an unabashed hugger, grapples with feeling anger for the first time in his life. See the Moose, suffering from severe FOMO, go on an adventure and return a forever changed cervid. And watch the Beaver, a relentless tree chewing machine, reform and make amends with the woods he has nearly mowed to the ground and the animals he has displaced in the process.
Life in the Wild combines absurdist humor, funny illustrations, and oddly touching stories to create a life lessons (of sorts) book that will have readers laughing out loud. Widely appealing stories and drawings will make this easy to recommend. An excellent addition to your library or classroom.
