Come for a walk with Kate and her dad to find out why the Pacific rain forest is called the salmon forest and how the salmon and the trees need each other. You'll also meet fat slugs and squawking gulls and a hungry bear. And you'll get to know Brett and his family as they fish for salmon, clean it, cook it and share a tasty meal with Kate and her dad. Together, David Suzuki and Sarah Ellis's fascinating story and Sheena Lott's beautiful watercolors show how the forest and the sea and all of life are connected.
