Publisher's Note Sometimes -- the more the merrier.
I set off one morning in my little red canoe.
My dog wagged his tail.
"Can I come, too?"
"You bet," I said.
"A trip for two -- just me and you."
But when "with a slap and a swim" Beaver scrambles in, and then "with a 'woo-hooo!' - flap!" Loon lands in the young canoeist's lap, it's clear that this will be no ordinary canoe trip.
A bouncy rhyming text and exuberant pictures full of funny, escalating antics will have young readers laughing out loud - for just when it seems the canoe can't hold anyone else, frog jumps in!
