Description
A raft drifts downstream, its presence marked by a flock of birds hovering above it. As it reaches the dock, leaves and branches are pushed aside to reveal a drawing of a rabbit - an ancient cave painting. Nicky's summer with his grandmother in the woods takes an unexpected turn when he discovers this mysterious raft. The raft seems to work a subtle magic, opening up the wonders around him - the animals of river and woods, his grandmother's humor and wisdom, and his own special talent as an artist. As Nicky explores, he begins to see the world in a new light. This book is suitable for readers who enjoy stories about family, nature, and self-discovery.
