Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
As father and daughter set up a lakeside campsite, somewhere across the water they hear the wild call of the loon. Later, paddling quietly across the starlit surface, they meet many lake dwellers but not elusive Loon. Finally Loon appears and in return for their patience and respect for his environment treats the girl and her father to an unexpected event. Jonathan Londons lyrical text is paired with Susan Fords beautiful pastel illustrations to create the gentle story of a father and daughter who share a magical, intimate moment with the natural world around them.
A girl and her father encounter loons and other lake creatures during a magical nightime canoe ride.
