Here's the second part of our Briar Patch trilogy: Allagash!Hopping rides in a hot-air balloon, a canoe and atop a moose named Taloose, Rufus and Nellie Rabbit travel to Maine to help save a wilderness waterway from being flooded by a giant dam. From critters and people to the mayor of Iffick to the governor to the president, a petition goes around to "Save The Allagash!" And who is the heroine? Why, a tiny flower, the Furbish Lousewort (based on real happenings in Northern Maine).
