Eager Little Beaver is a first-class hardback storybook has been written by Joan Stimson and illustrated by Meg Rutherford, a celebrated duo who have received wide acclaim for their previous books. It is one of a collection written about animals; this time about Biff the Beaver, who wants to be exciting so goes off in search of action and adventure by trying to be a dragonfly, a cygnet and a bear. When things go wrong, Mum and Dad come to the rescue. After a while he enjoys being a beaver and when their home gets damaged in a storm, he is able to be of use and help, as only beavers can, by rebuilding. He finds he's a natural-born builder and becomes content at last to be himself, something which could be a lesson to many humans. The story conveys real meaning using wonderfully simple language and is aimed at small children. The illustrations are lifelike, beautifully executed and really make the story come alive.--Susan NaylorRead More
