?What Goes on inside a Beaver Pond? takes kids ages 8 to 10 on a
journey through a year in the life of a young beaver (called a
"kit"). This is an exciting year as the young beaver leaves her
family lodge and moves throughout the Yokun Brook waterways,
seeking a new home for herself. Throughout the seasons, vibrant
illustrations and descriptions reveal the hidden inner-workings of
a beaver lodge, how beavers fell trees with their teeth and create
a wetland habitat, how they collect food and ward off predators,
and what daily life is like within a beaver colony. Educational
side panels enhance the story with details about beaver behaviour
and anatomy, as well as information about what other animal
inhabitants of the pond are up to throughout the year. Author Becky
Cushing Gop is an environmental educator and director of Mass
Audubon's Pleasant Valley Wildlife Sanctuary where the story takes
place. Nature illustrator Carrie Shryock's lively and charming
graphics bring the young beaver's story to life for nature-curious
kids.
