    Priceless Experience
  

*by O***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 31, 2012*

I've loved the writings of Henry David Thoreau since I was in my late teens, so I was very excited to read about Henry Hikes to Fitchburg when it was published in 2000. I bought the book immediately and read it as soon as it arrived. Not only was I not disappointed, I felt as if I had been given a chance to re-experience parts of Walden in a new way. D.B. Johnson takes a one-paragraph passage from Walden and extrapolates it into a beautifully illustrated story that brings to life Thoreau's point --  the journey is its own reward. In this picture book Henry and his friend are both bears, dressed in 1840s New England clothing. The illustrations tell the story of the tedium of working for wages versus the enjoyment of nature. I especially like the illustration which shows Henry crossing the Sudbury River. Highly Recommended.

    Good Morals and decent flow to the story and amazing illustrations
  

*by G***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 24, 2014*

I find this book to have a good solid moral foundation and a decent flow to the overall story. The illustration in this book is top-notch and love looking at it. My son loves it as well. I wasn't sure if the story would be boring to him, but it is not. He asks me to read this to him for bedtime. Whether you read Henry David Thoreau back in the day, or not, it is still a good book and I would recommend it to a friend.

    Refreshing and Delightfully Subversive
  

*by J***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 16, 2012*

Don Johnson's clever book contrasting Henry's smell-the-roses approach to life with his friend's more conventional idea about the value of efficiency would make a good addition to any child or school's library. Based on a quote by Henry David Thoreau, the book is a welcome antidote to the plethora of books aimed at the aspiring "Tiger Mom" market. The illustrations in the author's distinctive cubistic style lend an almost otherworldly and inviting element to the story. My wish for every child of high-pressure, well-meaning helicopter parents is that they have a relative or friend who will read "Henry Hikes to Fitchburg" to them at an early and impressionable age.
