Then a beaver decides to join them, even when the girl protests that It's a one-dog canoe. And when a loon, and a wolf, and a bear, and a moose all ask for a ride, it's almost too much. But they all manage to fit in this one-dog canoe--until a frog comes along. . . .</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Rhyming text sets a buoyant tone, as do debut artist Hoyt's lively illustrations. . . .
