More copies of this ISBN:Henry Climbs a Mountainby D B Johnson
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher 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 doesn’t 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. Review:'\"The simple, direct telling is very satisfying, and the stylized illustrations, in colored pencils and paint, look fresh and inviting.\"' Review:'\"...another story about a familiar and unique character whose deep moral convictions are expressed in simple, daily deeds.\"' About the AuthorD.
