Description
Looking for Loons is now available in paperback! Just after sunrise a boy ventures to the front porch of his family cottage to scan the misty lake with an old pair of binoculars. He is looking for loons. As he waits, his other pajama-wearing family members join him, and together they experience the fascinating sights and sounds of nature.
