Gathering: A Northwoods Counting Book, Written and iIllustrated by Betsy Bowen. Houghton Mifflin, 1999.
"The richly colored woodcuts are brilliant and add immeasurably to the joy of the narrative. This book is not just for children living in the northwoods or children learning to count. Older audiences will be enthralled with each turn of the page." (Review: Cook County News Herald, 1999)
