Henry Climbs a Mountain

by D B Johnson

Henry Climbs a Mountain Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Henry wants to climb a mountain, and nothing is going to stop him. Then Sam, the tax collector, puts him in jail for not paying his taxes. Henry refuses to pay to a state that allows slavery. But being locked up doesnt stop Henry. He still gets to splash in rivers, swing from trees, and meet a stranger. This bear, modeled on the real Henry David Thoreau, roams free.
