Shawn Buckner's Outdoor Adventures: Spring Turkey Chronicles Cory Pedersen

Volume one of this series introduces us to Shawn Buckner, a 14-year-old aspiring outdoorsmen who purchases his first recurve, learns to shoot it, and hits the Minnesota woodlands (by himself) in search of his first turkey. What transpires is a series of spectacular wildlife encounters that keeps the reader engaged from start to finish. From rattlesnakes to game wardens, this one has it all.

Through his simple delivery, vivid descriptions, and knowledge of the outdoors Pedersen succeeds in planting you firmly in the hunting boots of our young hero, and makes you want to grab your bow and have an adventure of your own. No matter how old you are. -- Nick Viau, lifeandlongbows.wordpress.com
