Henry Climbs a Mountain, the third book by D. B. Johnson based on the life of Henry David Thoreau, follows the ursine hero on his way to go mountain-climbing. Before he gets there, Henry is jailed for tax evasion. However, being locked up doesn't stop Henry from climbing mountains and forging some streams of his own invention. Interesting perspectives and Cubist shapes convey the adventurous bear's imagination and connection with nature.
