Part of the Life in the Wild series
A careless beaver's mishap leads to a forest transformation.
A reckless beaver's impulsive actions leave a trail of destruction in the forest. When a falling tree teaches him a hard lesson, he embarks on a journey of redemption. Can he mend the damage and win back the trust of his forest friends? Discover how a newfound wisdom transforms his world and theirs in this heartwarming tale of change and responsibility.
The busy but careless beaver spends his days following random impulses, rarely thinking things through and leaving in his wake a devastated forest filled with stumps, half-nibbled trees and injured, homeless animals. But then one day the beaver finds himself on the wrong side of a falling tree, which as it turns out, is just the thing to knock some sense into him. After reflecting on his behavior, he decides to make some changes. Soon, the now wiser and gentler beaver is getting down to the business of making things right, much to the delighted surprise of his forest friends. This charming story from the creator of Big Bear Hug and Making the Moose Out of Life gently teaches youngsters how to take care with others, as well as the world around us.
