With Dad
Richard Jackson
In an autobiographical first-person picture book, a boy recalls a fishing and camping trip with his father in Michigan. He helps steer a jeep along a rough road to their riverside campsite. His mother stays home but sends a teasing note. Later, he imagines his father driving another jeep in a distant war and wishes for his safe, prompt return. Pen-and-ink, watercolor, and gouache illustrations accompany the account.
