" Song of the River celebrates children’s freedom to explore and discover the outdoors, and it’s a joy to read—the writing swings along like a river."

In this resonant story from Joy Cowley, Cam the mountain boy follows the river from its trickling source in the snow all the way to the sea. The river leads him through forest, farms and towns to the salty wind of the sea. The dramatic landscapes are packed with detail to discover in the world of the river.
