From Ben Loman to the Sea rug hooking Pub date: October 9This unique book that will delight both children and story time readers. It combines the poetry of Lance Woolaver and the sunny paintings of Maud Lewis. The rhyming verse story is set in rural Nova Scotia in the the past.

The art of Maud Lewis is among Canada's greatest treasures.
