When Beavers Flew by Kristen Tracy illustrated by Luisa Uribe*

 World magazine reviewed this picture book, which prompted me to borrow it from the library.

In 1948 the residents in McCall, Idaho, were irritated by the abundance of beavers! Elmo Heter, a Fish and Game Warden, thought of a method to transport the beavers safely to a new location which would benefit from their presence and "lifestyle". 

Very interesting! The illustrations display creativity and a variety of perspectives (bird's eye view, up from the ground etc).

*Highly recommend.

-Borrowed from the library.
