Review

Boof the bear is afraid of many things, including other bears. However, he does like to collect things. None are as special as the red leaf he finds. They do everything together until one very windy day when the leaf blows away. Boof was very sad so his friend Pine the Porcupine decides to help him find it. The two go on quite an adventure as they search for Boof's red leaf. Although they never find the leaf, they do discover something else, the power of friendship. The illustrations, done in pencil and acrylic, reflect the woodland setting and add natural appeal to the story.

Overall Book Score: very good
