Looking for a Moose by Phyllis Root

Children go to the woods in search of a moose and find many moose.

I liked the choice of words the author used to repeat throughout the book. I can imagine children saying them over and over again getting great enjoyment. Inside the illustrations are clues that moose are close by even when the children in the book can't see them. The illustrations are colorful and animals are clearly defined.
