Book Description
for A River Ran Wild by Lynne Cherry
From the Publisher
Long ago, Indian peoples discovered the Nashua River. Later they settled on its banks and lived in harmony with nature. In the 1600s, English colonists with a different view towards nature settled there. At the start of the twentieth century, an industrial revolution began decades of pollution that destroyed the river -- until an ambitious cleanup campaign was launched. Grades K-3 and older readers.
