Description

Told from the perspective of Seaman, this story tells of his expedition and adventures with Meriwether Lewis, his master. Seaman is a large, 150-pound Newfoundland dog. He loved being in charge of Lewis, seeing new places, discovering new animals, and meeting new people. He was also constantly on the lookout for danger that may be harmful to Lewis. This story is accompanied by beautiful pictures and occasional definitions of uncommon words. The back of the book also includes the recipe to make Sacajawea's Pemmican and a map of Seaman's journey. This is a great way for young ones to learn a bit about early American history. 31 pgs, pb. ~ Brianna
