Last week, while I was reading The Raft to Adam, the older boys were finishing up some other work at the table. After hearing about this unusual Grandma who carved wooden bears, was called a river rat and liked to draw, Zac came over and said, "I want to see what she looks like." It was nice to see his curiosity piqued.
The boys did some drawings this week, based on pages in the book. Stephen did an otter:

Zac liked the picture of the boy jumping off the raft into the water. It did look like a fun thing to do:
and Adam really stuck at his drawing this time. He took on board my suggestions and changed the antlers as he originally had them double the thickness. He also drew in a whole eye as he thought it should be there. When I pointed out you could barely see the actual eye, he changed it. I helped him smooth out the colouring but it is essentially his own picture.
