Henry's friends learn that you can work hard and love what you do in
this installment of the New York Times best-selling series
inspired by the life of Henry David Thoreau.
"With a quiet humor and attention to natural settings, Johnson
respectfully conveys Thoreau's philosophy of simplicity." --Publishers
Weekly, starred review
Does it still count as hard work if you are also having fun?
Without Henry the bear, inspired by Henry David Thoreau, wildflowers
would go unwatered, rivers would have no crossing stones, and storms
would come without warning. His friends try to convince him that he's
not "doing anything," but Henry finds his work more rewarding than
getting paid. Henry Works flows through morning's mist to evening's
glow, when Henry's most important work is revealed!
A celebration of nature and hard work that comes in many shapes and
sizes.
