About this ebook

When his daughter Suzanne was five years old, Bill Kennedy set out with her on a canoe trip into the wilderness of Ontario's 7,600-square-kilometre Algonquin Provincial Park. Paddling and portaging through the park's interior, they would share the grand adventure of the lessons nature had prepared for them amid its lakes and forests, including a hair-raising wildlife encounter.
Fun in the great outdoors, Kennedy maintains, is a school of learning every child should have the opportunity to experience. It speaks a language that children universally and happily respond to. It's a school that will encourage them to work together toward the goal of a healthier environment and thereby a better world for themselves and the generations to follow.
This book is especially for the parents and grandparents of children and teenagers, but it will interest anyone who believes in the empowering gift nature offers us, if only we take the time to see it.
"There is no better 'life skills' teacher than a canoe trip and no better 'school' than Algonquin Park. Come along with Bill and Suzanne Kennedy on the trip of a lifetime. You'll be charmed, entertained, educated – and even scared silly." Roy MacGregor

Bill Kennedy

Bill Kennedy passed away in December 2011. In going through his things, this handwritten manuscript was found. It tells of a heartbreaking experience that resulted from changing occupations, which he felt was God’s leading. Bill was raised in Missouri but spent a great deal of his life in southern California and in the Northwest with his wife and four children. Bill lost his vision to macular degeneration in 2004. He did beautiful oil paintings previously but continued to paint with just a smidgen of peripheral vision in his left eye. He also taught tap dancing to a group of fifty- to eighty-year-old ladies and performed with them; they were called “The Tap Grandmas.” He and a partner also performed in Christmas musicals at our church. Bill was a musician, artist, faithful Christian, and loyal friend--and is so missed.
