Beaver is Lost


Beaver is Lost. Elisha Cooper. 2010. June 2010. Random House. 40 pages.

I read Beaver is Lost a few weeks ago. And I'm just as puzzled now as I was then as to what to say about it. Why? Well, it's a wordless picture book. Mostly. Four little words tell the whole story. Three you might guess--since they're also in the title: Beaver is Lost. It's a story of a beaver who has lost his way. A beaver who has wandered into the city, into a strange environment. And the book illustrates his journey, his quest, to find his way back home.
