Loon Chase is a delightful story about a boy who discovers that his domesticated dog still has powerful instincts similar to animals in the wild. It is also about the surprising outcome of the encounter between the dog and a mother loon: the bigger animal doesn't necessarily prevail. In addition, this heart-warming tale is a story about a child's moment of wonder, when he finally meets the loon himself. Kathryn Freeman's pastel illustrations are absolutely superb. The “Creative Minds” section has teaching trivia about loons, and a Native American Loon Ceremonial mask craft.
