Description


At the beginning of this lovely tale, something unusual is occurring! The Laughing Brook and Smiling Pool's waters are now just a trickle, causing concern among the Green Forest's creatures. It looks like Jerry Muskrat's cousin, Paddy the Beaver, has migrated south to create a new home. He had to halt the water that flowed in the Laughing Brook and Smiling Pool to construct a beautiful new pond for himself and a cozy home made of sticks and mud. But what will happen to the waterways in the Green Forest?


In this delightful story of forest exploration, young readers will discover how the kind, good-natured beaver wins over the scolding Sammy Jay, and the two team up to outsmart Old Man Coyote. This timeless story, with its original illustrations by Harrison Cady, not only entertains young readers and listeners, but it also teaches valuable lessons about friendship, trust, and respect for the environment.
