Two earnest but not very well informed friends attempt to find and incubate moose eggs so that Moose can have some youngsters to raise. No surprise that they are not successful. The characters are bumbling but well-intentioned fellows who get themselves into scrapes that all work out okay in the end. This is a charmingly imaginative explanation of how Moose got his big, flat antlers; droopy nose; and wide hooves.

“Kids meet familiar North Country critters, including otters and ruffed grouse. It's a silly but sweet and beautifully illustrated tale about where baby moose come from.”

—Adirondack Life

 

“This fun fable (is) a fictional explanation for how moose came to have big flat antlers.”

—Your Big Back Yard


“A standout story-teller’s charmer if there ever was one . . . The tale is a hoot-and-a-half, the illustrations chuckle right off the page, and no one will be bored with the READ-IT-AGAIN chant.”

—The Maine Courier Gazette
