Jan Brett brings her usual gift of character and beautiful illustrations to this story of a young musk ox separated from his family during a storm. He discovers that, while he is separated from home, he is not alone. A cozy(!) read.
From the cover I became enchanted. The endpapers are gorgeous, though my old eyes can only make out the most obvious 'hidden pictures' in the lichen. I love the theme of the house rules to enforce a 'peaceable kingdom.' I love the vocabulary words like gamboled and oomingmak. I love the science.
