Paddletail the Beaver and His Neighbors is the third of four volumes of Neil Wayne Northey’s Old Homestead series. Like the first two volumes this is a quick and pleasant children’s book that follows the lives of numerous animals inhabit the area around the Wildwood Pond in the Black Forest though the titular Paddletails. Although the third book in the series, it doesn’t have to be read in order while still providing enjoyment to young children either reading on their own or being read to by their parents.

My dad found an old copy of this book somewhere and we practically grew up with it after that. A good story, inhabited by such characters as Paddletail the Beaver and Danny Muskrat. Somewhat akin to Thornton Burgess except with a strong Christian perspective.

Written for younger children. Very good book.
