    About this ebook

    Join Sammy, Swifty and Newsome ... three young otter brothers ... as they find excitement, adventure and some hard-learned lessons in the San Juan Islands. Sammy, Swifty and Newsome join their mother in the daily life of an otter, hunting for food, learning how to find tools for opening clam shells, rafting together on the open seas to sleep, and where to find the best tasty urchins and abalone. All goes well, but along the way they have to hide from hungry sea lions and even soaring eagles; they meet a surprise new member of the family; and the three brothers find out how not listening to their mother can lead to a scarry and dangerous adventure.

    Katheen Morrissey

    Kathleen Morrissey and her husband raised two sons. Their grandsons are a continuous source of inspiration for children's stories. Kathleen's career as an industrial educator allowed her to travel extensively throughout the United States and to other parts of the world as well. Her family hobbies of boating and camping in the San Juan Islands and the cascade Mountains over the years taught her to appreciate the outdoors and the wide variety of animals with which we share the planet.

      Two Canoes And Miles Of Water

      Jul 1, 2020

      I SAT DOWN at the side of the trail, wiping sweat from my brow. A mosquito buzzed near my ear, and I swatted it away. Another landed on my arm. I slapped it, leaving a smear of bug innards. I sighed. This was not how I had wanted to spend my summer.
