Moose may be shy, but if children keep on the lookout, they just might find one. Readers will learn about the animals and the changing seasons, and even ages 5 and under can read along with someone. “This journey to the far north contains a fun quest for a moose, but also includes important educational endnotes about the wildlife and habitats found in the story,” Jeanne Nicholson of Barefoot Books told TDmonthly. It received the 2007 Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Award. Launch date: September 2006.
