I announced to Mama that brother Bew and I would begin our journey. As dreams are the touchstones of our characters, it was time for us to strike out on our own and do this thing that we have planned and hoped for so long.\u003cp\u003eElliott’s first entry into his journal portends the adventure that lies ahead for him and his brother. They leave Lowell and navigate the convergence of the Merrimack and Concord rivers in a raft, seeking a place where they hope to embrace a simpler existence. Simplify, simplify, simplify…Elliott’s story is inspired by Henry David Thoreau’s A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers, a recounting of the journey taken by him and his brother John. Surprising twists and turns in their trip deliver Elliott and Bew to Concord, Henry’s home. Will the brothers have more adventures at the river’s end? Will the daredevil Bew find his place in this thriving village? And, will Elliott connect with the kindred spirit of Henry David Thoreau?
