| Publisher Description: Sometimes - the more the merrier "I set off one morning in my little red canoe." "My dog wagged his tail." ""Can I come, too?"" ""You bet," I said." ""A trip for two - just me and you."" But when "with a slap and a swim" Beaver scrambles in, and then "with a 'woo-hooo ' - flap " Loon lands in the young canoeist's lap, it's clear that this will be no ordinary canoe trip. A bouncy rhyming text and exuberant pictures full of funny, escalating antics will have young readers laughing out loud - for just when it seems the canoe can't hold anyone else, frog jumps in |
