Title: Appeals to the free-spirited.
Review: This book was on my bookshelf as a child (I am Australian). I never read it and later passed it on. Now, 35 years later, I have just visited the Grand Canyon, USA, recognised the cover of the book at a gift shop, and read it on the flight home to Australia. It appealed greatly to me because of the fun-loving, free-spirited nature of the burro. I could identify Brighty's journeys with our stay at Grand Canyon and my walk down part of Bright Angel Train, and the book certainly created feeling and atmosphere which enhanced our short visit to this incredible and beautiful place. The illustrations in the book gave me great pleasure also, and I felt those who enjoy reading children's books would enjoy it as I did. I was interested to read the comments by one reviewer, though, on the environmental impact of burros.
