MY REVIEW


Webster is a therapy dog with a family of two loving humans and a black lab named River for a brother. Although he used to be a hunting dog, now he can relax and enjoy nature and observing the animals along the river throughout the year. Each season in the book has Webster accompanying his owner for a different activity - crabbing, fishing, collecting oysters. Webster even likes to check up on the ospreys that come to build their nest each spring. Illustrations capture Webster’s cheerful personality and enthusiasm for all his activities. Seeing him bounding from rock to rock along the Rappahannock River makes it clear that he enjoys his life. While readers may be amazed to see him munching green beans, it will not be a surprise at all that he takes a nap alongside his furry brother. Who wouldn’t need a little rest after all those adventures? Webster learns a lot about the animals while supervising his owner, but readers can also find out interesting facts that are included as sidebars to the story. Young nature lovers will be entertained to discover that ospreys sometimes include dog toys in the construction of their nests or that blue crabs can have over two million eggs at a time. The photos of the author and his beagle make the inspiration for the story very obvious and will probably have readers asking if Webster will be having any more adventures in other books.
