The author and the photographer capture much of what is unique about Michigan. The book is an artistic lesson in the beauty of environmental diversity, the intrigue of geologic processes, and the nature of agrarian subsistence. Probably best suited for children under 7 and adults over 35:). My five-year old loves it.
Delightful

A delightful literary contribution which allows the reader to almost touch, smell and sense the ambience of the changing seasons in Upper Michigan. The pictures capture the beauty of the land and reveal why the author wants to share her infatuation and enthusiasm for the land and its content.

as usual, Ken Scott's photography says more than can be imagined. The text is right on how it captures what we do on vacation. An amazing memory book for anyone that vacations up north or just has an affinity for the area.
WHAT A FUN BOOK!

This book makes me want to jump in the car and drive up north to beautiful Michigan! My 2 year old daughter is mesmerized by the playful text and creative photographs. Not only is this book entertaining for my daughter, but it also is a beautiful 'coffee table' book for adults. If you have a link to northern Michigan or are just curious about exploring that part of the country - this book is a 'must-have' - - simply excellent!
This is great!

I've spent much time in northern Michigan, and though now I can't get back too often, I still cherish all the times I had up there. The author and photographer together have captured what it's like to be there. From the cherries to the dunes to the sunsets, reading this book made me feel like I was on vacation ! If you want a great book on northern Michigan, for yourself and/or for your kids, this is without question the best I've seen.
