We're Going on a Leaf Hunt

Well... the idea is good, and the illustrations are nice, but the story is a bit stupid. Now, I don't know how I would see it, if I was a kid. I wanted to go to a leaf hunt, and hunt leaves from all the trees around here, but... climbing mountains and rowing over lakes is a bit much for a day trip for little kids.

Ok - a same-old familiar storyline with kind illustrations.

A minor nit that some illustrations show children rowing a row boat (with two oars) while facing forward. I understand the illustrator could have chosen them to face forward to not confuse children; however, if that was a valid concern they could have just drawn a single paddle per child instead of two oars (and left the children facing forward).
