Why I Love This BookPut simply, this book celebrates the joy and adventure that enter your life when you open yourself up to possibilities. Honestly, the entire book seems like one of those water based amusement park rides that surprise you at every turn of the stream. The incredible spreads of images with bold colors and strokes add to the excitement.
The story begins with the fact that, "The river didn't know it was capable of adventures until Bear came along." I love that Richard T. Morris gave thought and voice to a nonliving object. This is a great jumping off point for so many great conversations. What else didn't the river know? What does your backyard know? What does your old high chair know? Themes
