Splash! Dragging a young tree a beaver enters the water with some new building material for his dam. Using his powerful teeth, he cut down the slender tree trunk. Now he knows exactly where it will be placed in the ever-growing structure he is building with his mate.

In this book, young readers will be introduced to this keystone species. Beavers build dams across rivers to make ponds where they can safely raise their young. As they do this, they create important wetland habitats where other animals and water plants can thrive.

  • Learn how a beaver’s strong building instincts help it to create a dam.
  • See into the beaver family’s lodge home with its secret, underwater entrance.
  • Meet the beaver couple’s tiny kits and find out how the babies learn to swim and find food.

Readers will be astounded by these clever animal builders and the amazing effect that their home sweet home can have on a wild habitat.
