Reviews
Clickard employs rhyming nonfiction to recount Thomas Jefferson's search for mammoth bones in the newly formed United States. . . . Carpenter's digitally rendered illustrations are full of playful soupçons--Jefferson measures mouse holes and moose antlers in one series of vignettes--complementing the jaunty verse.
