And so begins a journey--not only an exploration of rapids, lakes, and forests, but also an inner journey of discovery. Through poetic text and drawings, woven gracefully with quotes by John Muir, Walking Buffalo, Sigurd F. Olson, Henry David Thoreau, and others, Douglas Wood traces a journey by paddle and canoe that renews the spirit.

Praise for this book

Douglas Wood has caught Sigurd Olson's fire.-Les Blacklock, Wildlife artist and author

Paddle Whispers is a remarkable book, beautifully describing the inner journey to joy and meaning in nature, and in oneself. I heartily recommend this inspirational guide to a deeper experience of the natural world.-Joseph Cornell, Author of Sharing Nature With Children
