Welcome to Wildwood!

Ninety tiny cottages around a sparkling lake in the Pacific Northwest. There's a big swimming dock, a pool, a playground, a clubhouse where everyone meets, and a beaver in a Beaverland Forever t-shirt who never misses the fun.

Every book ends with a note for grown-ups on the lesson, Let's Talk! questions and a Draw your favourite part page.
