BY D B JOHNSON "[In this book] Johnson tackles [Thoreau's] philosophy on civil disobedience... Henry the bear sets off to retrieve one of his shoes from the cobbler. But before he can pick it up, he is jailed for nonpayment of taxes. While there, Henry uses crayons and his imagination to create for himself a new shoe, trees, and a mountain path to explore. [On this] mountain, he meets an unnamed, barefoot traveler. Although the stranger's comments indicate that he is an escaped slave seeking freedom, his fur is the same color as Henry's.. Henry gives the traveler his shoes., then returns . to his cell. . Johnson's text does a fine job of explaining the essential conflicts without oversimplifying them."-SLJ
