Written by Sara Jewell, and illustrated by Charlotte Manning.
On the first day in my cabinfar away from the cars and the crowdsat the edge of the woodson the bank of the riverI sat on the front porchto listen to the wind and the wavesand I heard...Chomp chompMunch munchCrack crackKnock knockEager for some peace and quiet, the main character of this tale in verse moves to the woods and builds a little cabin getaway.

Young listeners will delight in the animals’ playful antics and learn a bit about life in the wild.
