Welcome to Clark the Mountain Beaver’s Home Page!

Clark the Mountain Beaver is a real life mountain beaver that lives in my yard! The discovery of Clark inspiried me to write this fun uplifting children’s book.

Clark the Mountain Beaver and His Big Adventure is the first ever children’s book to feature the shy and secretive Mountain Beaver. We hope to spread the word about mountain beavers, and to inspire kids to connect with the natural world. Throughout Clark’s adventure, kids will meet new friends and discover fun facts about animals. Most importantly, they will learn about friendship, trust and believing in yourself.

A wonderful children’s book that has a great message even adults will appreciate! Suitable for ages 5 and up. 

“Karen B. Shea’s beautifully illustrated new book “Clark the Mountain Beaver and His Big Adventure” teaches children about friendship and how to accept one another’s differences, while also educating them about animals and the Lewis and Clark expedition. This charming book will be a favorite with children for its cute characters and Disney-like illustrations.” – Tyler R. Tichelaar, award-winning author of The Only Thing That Lasts.

“Be a friend to life’s wild side!”
