Reading Update: Hour 21



Rascal by Sterling North

I'd anticipated spending the full twenty-four hours reading Newbery Honor books, but somehow this is the only one I have managed to finish today.

Rascal is a raccoon who befriends a young Sterling North. Together with Sterling's indulgent father, the raccoon and boy traverse the wilds of Wisconsin, camp near lakes, and watch wild deer and mink. It's a small book that draws beautiful pictures of life in America during the latter part of World War I.
