When Sharptooth, a two-year-old male beaver, is banished from his parents' lodge to make room for the newest litter of kits, he embarks on an adventure common to all beaver. He must find a mate, establish a new homesite, build his own lodge, and produce young, all the while keeping a vigilant watch out for bears, foxes, wolverines, otters, and the most dangerous predator of all - man.
Sharptooth is not a "furry little person," he is a real beaver. This totally unsentimental and accurate story of a year in his life is based on the author's long observation and knowledge of wildlife. David Allenby Smith believes that only by understanding animals on their own terms can we achieve a satisfactory relationship with the world that they and we live in. This vivid narrative will fascinate young readers and many older ones as well.
