Review
In this sequel to A Nest for Celeste, the young mouse unexpectedly finds herself on a Mississippi steamboat headed north. She makes friends wherever she goes including a young Abe Lincoln. Celeste has engaging conversations with her many animal friends along her journey. Her communication with the young Abe Lincoln is of a different sort. The story is well written and filled with adventure. The black and white pencil illustrations enhance the twenty two chapters. I highly recommend this novel for young readers grades 3-5 interested in friendship, nature, and a bit of history.
Overall Book Score: very good
