Reading this book makes you want to sew an apron, regardless of whether you have any sewing experience. The character is skillful. He prepares the cloth, measures, and plans construction of his apron. Bruno shows that it is important to be careful with needles. He bleeds a little but quickly recovers from a needle stick and goes on with his work. The drawings are cute but also detailed. The picture of Bruno's workshop shows a must-see, beaver-shaped dress form toward the back of the room!

This text helped me to understand the behavioral changes that coincide with aging, and specifically helped me to deal with my parents and elderly relatives who are all in their 80's and above. (My grandmother lived to age 110.) By reading and understanding the types of changes and losses experienced - vision, hearing, psychological changes (How would you feel if every week you went to services they were conducting a memorial for someone you knew?),health problems - I was able to moderate my behaviors so we had (and have) more friendly and communicative interactions that have a semblance of normality.

I really liked this book, but I only rate it a nine becuase it I'm not all that interested in Indians. Otherwise, the text was wonderful. It was a good book

I thought that this book was very well written and extremely informative. I used to own a copy years ago but lost it (someone borrowed it and refused to return it!). Since then I have been looking for a replacement. I have most of Beaver's other books too!

Last summer-99, I fished the Beaverkill and loved it, even in early August during the drought, for two days. I bought this book about a month ago, as I plan to go the the Beaverkill again this June for at least a week. Peper gives a very detailed account on how and where to fish the ponds of the B'kill. His descriptions of the hatches and the ties to fly are a plus to the book. In the past few weeks I have tied over 100 flies that he describes in his book, to take on my trip. I assume from what I have read in the book will make my fishing trip a great success. I recommmend this book to anyone even thinking of fishing the Beaverkill, you cant go wrong by buying it. See you in Junction Pool, this summer. Dr. Jim Ann Arbor, Michigan.

This book is one of my all time favorites. This book is very easy to read. The late Vynola Beaver Newkumet, a respected Caddo Tribal elder wrote this book with the assistance of a talented non tribal member writer. It is full of easily absorbed interesting information about the Caddo Tribe and its people.

You will find yourself returning to favorite passages in this book to re experience them. This book is a traditional history but it isn't mainstream American traditional history. It is explained from a distinctly Native American point of view.

Hasinai provides narratives of Caddo Tribal business council and cultural leaders. It also provides information about Caddo tribal words and language. This is a living history book. There are very well taken photographs in this book. Some must be extremely treasured by their owners.

This definitely is a must have book. You and your children will enjoy it. It will be a conversation piece.

I read Here Come the Beavers. This book showed how they built their houses and how the father beavers have to go away when the mother beavers are about to have little beavers.This book told about the beaver's enemies.The lady who wrote the book used good describing words.The pictures are very good. I liked how the illustrator used just blue, brown,black and white.If you want to find out about beavers read this book.

Floyd Beaver is my great uncle. he has an amazing love of writing and of the sea. In both his books Homeward Bounder and White Hats thoroughly express his loves. The way writes makes you feel like you are there, and you will never put the book down.

I first came across this book while serving as a Park Ranger at Acadia National Park in Maine. I had befriended a family of beaver and was curious to learn more about these delightful creatures. I was discouraged by the lack of informative and interesting literature that was available. Luckily, a fellow ranger pointed me towards this book, and I quickly devoured it.

Orginially published in 1913 (and subsequently often hard to find), Enos Mills's comprehensive observations of beaver behavior and lifestyle continues to serve as an authoritative depiction of the "Original Conservationists," as beaver are sometimes called. The famed naturalist and father of Rocky Mountain National Park writes with a tender eloquence that reveals his admiration for this noble animal.

This book is not a collection of scientific facts about beaver, but rather a series poetic essay about the world of the beaver, their contributions to the opening of the western frontier, their better-than-human conservation of natural resources, and their present tenuous foothold in the shrinking wild places of North America. It is extremely informative and provides a thourough investigation of the lifestyle and habits of the beaver and the many myths that surround this curious creature. It is a book you will want to read from cover to cover. Even those who have never had the pleasure of meeting a beaver will enjoy this book.

I found this to be more helpful than the textbook that it supports! If you aren't a stats whiz, I suggest you get this to survive the class!
