This book is about a little harp seal who just ventured out into the sea. One day he wakes up hungry, and his mother feeds him. He has white fur and blubber to protect him from the cold. I think this is a great book to educate children about the life of a seal. I found it interesting that a mother seal leaves their young shortly after they are born. The pup must then learn to live on its own. A polar bear tries to attack Little Harp Seal, and thankfully, his mother comes to the rescue. The cycle continues with each generation of seals. I would give this book five thumbs up for the illustrations. There were graphic and very detailed pictures.

The author should have learned more about this subject before she passed judgment on magic mushrooms. There is good reason to believe that mankind has used this kind of mushroom since we first domesticated cattle. Magic mushrooms may be the basis for all religion as we know it. Very shallow and misinformed.

Any other book on this subject would be more informative. "Clue" if you see it listed in the (drug abuse prevention library), it's probably biased and not full of useful information.

The author is obviously misinformed - no real 'shroomer would just take the fungi and leave a perfectly good pile of dung lying there.

Trite and moralistic introduction to plants that have been used by man for thousands of years.
