Waiting for High Tide

(3) K-3 At high tide--six long hours away--a boy and his family will launch their raft. As the boy helps build the raft, he observes shoreline animals. McClure naturally integrates facts about wildlife and raft-building into the boy's excited present-tense narrative. Bold black-and-white cut-paper illustrations (accented with water-blue and pink) and fine-lined spot art detail the teeming life at water's edge. Websites.
