A persistent young boy tries everything he can think of to attract a moose, but it isn't until he is forced to do nuthin that he is successful. PreSchool-Grade 1-This story follows a boy's dogged efforts to find a moose while the adults he encounters repeatedly tell him that the best method is to "do nuthin." Finally, when he finds himself hanging upside down in a snare he intended for the animal, he relaxes and decides to "do nuthin," as advised. Only then is he rewarded with the wondrous sight of a grazing moose family. Words such as "deuce," "lure," "noose," "sashayed," and "swayed" used in the forced rhyming text may not be comprehensible to young children. While the book uses repetition and onomatopoeic words that youngsters usually enjoy, the slight plot is unsatisfying. The watercolor illustrations are adequate but not winning enough to overcome the textual flaws. Jackie Hechtkopf, University of Maryland, College Park Copyright 2000 Reed Business Information, Inc.
