History from a Dog's Point of View April 19, 2009
Sandy Nathan (California)
I discovered this book in an art gallery, which is exactly where it belongs. (Well, it belongs on Amazon and in book stores, too.) This book is so charming that, after glancing through it, I felt compelled to buy it for my grandchildren--once I'm done feasting on it myself.
I had no idea Meriwether Lewis had a Newfoundland dog, nor did I know that it accompanied him on the historic Lewis and Clark expedition. That's a tough dog.
And this is a lovely way of introducing history to young readers. The illustrations are beyond gorgeous.
Terrific book! March 23, 2009
C. Washell (Cleveland, GA)
This was an excellent companion to our children's unit on Lewis and Clark. The book was very engaging and the illustrations were truly beautiful. It provided our children with an informative yet highly enjoyable account of the Lewis and Clark expedition. The book was written from the perspective of Seaman, Lewis's dog, and this allowed for an interesting view of the events that occurred on the expedition. My children also enjoyed using the attached Seaman bookmarker. This was a very cute addition to a well-written and delightful book.
Animal lover's Tale November 18, 2008
M. Crow (Pittsburgh, Pa USA)
Patraica Reeder Eubank's fun loving doggy tale, "Seaman's Journal; On the Trail of Lewis and Clark" (Ideals Children's Books, 2002),is a beautifully illustrated book about Seaman, a Newfoundland, who goes on the famous expedition with Lewis and Clark. Seaman guides the reader on the trails through his journal entries; pulling the reader along with him as he tells of his experiences. For instance,meeting with many different indian tribes,even traveling with Sacajawea and her family. Seaman tells of his kidnapping and his return, his act of bravery, when he scares a charging buffalo away. The plot and illustrations work well together, they are life-like and exciting, Eubanks uses the earth tones in her paintings, which adds to the effect of the pages looking like an old journal, complete with three rings and aged looking pages. The reader will enjo learning the historical facts drawn on each page,as they experienc this adventure through Seaman's eyes.
Wonderful Book! July 16, 2007

This book is absolutely beautiful! The illustrations and colors are incredible. The story is great too. The dog's perspective is a wonderful way to learn about this important journey and appreciate the historical facts. My son and I never get tired of looking at this book. Highly recommended!
