Although I found the 'fairy-tale' aspect of Riparia's River a little hokey - Riparia, whose name is clearly an adaptation of the word riparian, meaning "of or pertaining to the banks of a river," seems to be a kind of nature spirit, appearing and disappearing mysteriously - I liked the message imparted, about caring for the environment, and restoring damaged ecosystems, all the same. I also really appreciated Riparia's cautionary words to the children, concerning how they should approach their friend Amy about the problem, and the idea that, when seeking to resolve troubling issues, discussion works better than accusation or demands. All in all, this was an enjoyable book, one with an engaging story, good message and appealing artwork. Recommended to young ecologists and river lovers! ( )
