Even Children Dream of Travel

“Holling – Paddle to the Sea”

An Indian boy carves a wooden canoe and writes an inscription that the canoe is trying to find the quickest route to the sea. He then sets the canoe into Lake Michigan and longingly watches it sail away. The canoe spends four years on the water, being picked up by loggers, fishermen, and families before finally making it to the sea. "Paddle to the Sea", a children's book by Holling Clancy Holling - DN
