Product Description
Just after sunrise, a boy ventures out onto the front porch of the family cottage to scan the misty lake through an old pair of binoculars. He is looking for loons. Joined by other pajama-wearing family members and sipping a steaming mug of hot chocolate, he experiences nature’s magical sights and sounds firsthand. Jennifer Lloyd’s sensitive prose and Kirsti Wakelin’s shimmering artwork bring to life such enchanting images as a beaver smacking his tail in water and a canoe gliding serenely in the distance in this memorable picture book.

The thoughtful, naturalistic artwork of Kirsti Anne Wakelin beautifully illustrates this charming story September 7, 2007 Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Looking for Loons is a children's picturebook set in a cottage by a lake. As dawn comes, different sounds wake different members of the family, but where are the sounds of the loons? A young boy delays a mouth-watering pancake breakfast to sit on the porch chair, listen, and watch for the loons - and when they come, it is an experience to remember! The thoughtful, naturalistic artwork of Kirsti Anne Wakelin beautifully illustrates this charming story, ideal for reading aloud.
