  • If you enjoy Sam Campbell's books, you'll like this one.
It is written towards the end of WWII which adds to the interesting story line. These were the books of my childhood and I have enjoyed recently reading them again as a senior. They are full of heartwarming forest characters with all their funny antics. I've learned a lot of wildlife facts by reading Sam's books. If you like the great outdoors, you'll enjoy these books. They are really great read aloud books. I've read them to my students and my family. ... show more

  • Adventures abound with Animals, a Kid, a Soldier, and a Leaky Canoe
Sometime over the years an inanimate object becomes something more than it is, whether it is a car or in the case of Sam Campbell a canoe. A Tippy Canoe and Canada Too is the fourth book of Campbell’s Living Forest ranges from the Sanctuary of Wegimind to the wilds of Canada’s canoe country featuring not only animal adventures but also the last year of the Campbell’s durable canoe, Buddie. Sam and Giny Campbell return to their animal sanctuary in early spring 1945 and find their durable canoe, Buddie, in bad shape and because a concern throughout the book even though they’re able to repair it well enough. Recovering from the bad news of their canoe, they are happily surprised to find Still-Mo with a family only because they thought she was a male. Soon they learn their island home’s resident woodchuck has also become a mother. As they enjoy the new residents of the island, Sam and Giny have another new young neighbor boy, Hi-Bud, who met Sam in St. Louis years before and has moved close by. Throughout the spring and summer, Hi-Bud becomes a welcome guest and nature-enthusiast-in-training that the couple enjoys having over. Late in the summer they welcome their friend Sandy on leave from V-E Day injury before his deployment to the Pacific only for the war to end, suddenly allowing the three of them to take their long awaited journey to Canadian canoe country to find an isolated lake to observe and research animals without hardly any human interference. Unfortunately this is Buddie’s last trip as it’s damaged so much that after their return they decide to burn the canoe in a pyre at the end of the book. Although the book is the a little longer than the previous two books, Campbell packs a lot of stuff in this book though in his usual engaging and easy reading prose. Like the last book, a war-experience soldier brings some of philosophical thought to the front especially as he now is looking towards his future post-combat. With young Hi-Bud, youthful exuberance brings out another kind of philosophical thought from Campbell that is very enlightening especially in connection with the imaginative youngster. There is religious faith is written about, though not as prominent as the previous book. A Tippy Canoe and Canada Too while very much like the previous three books of Sam Campbell’s series, it is also different as it gives the reader an impression about how things changed for people after World War II ended as compared to when it was going on. If you enjoyed the previous books that Campbell has written you’d enjoy this as well. ... show more

  • Memories returned
This is the last book of Sam Campbell's "Living Forest Series." It is a bittersweet tale of how the author discovers his canoe has not wintered well and must make the decision of how to part with his canoe which has served him so well through the years. The process helps him come to grips with his own life. It helps him make decisions that would've been too hard for him make had he not found the canoe. I recommend this after reading BELOVED RASCALS, Eeny, Meeny, Miney, Mo - and Still-Mo: Lessons in Living from Five Frisky Red Squirrels, and Loony Coon Antics of a Rollicking Raccoon. ... show more
