Roberts follows a family of beavers in a Canadian woodland pond. There is a battle in the pond, the under-water world of the lodge, the repair and building of dams, the peril of the trappers’ sets, and the long winter beneath the ice, with other wild neighbours such as bears drifting through.

Realistic animal fiction by a Canadian master of the form, ideal for young nature lovers. Download the free EPUB.
