Henry David's House by Henry David Thoreau, Edited by Steven Schnur, illustrated by Peter Fiore, Charlesbridge Publishing, 2002, ISNB 0-88106-116-6
PS: Excerpts from Thoreau's Walden highlight his belief in the inherent value of living life in harmony with nature.
Beautiful, dreamy, Impressionist-style illustrations accompany this story of Thoreau's year-long experiment with simplicity and nature. The text is original, so it requires a mature reader if read at the elementary level, but would make a great picture book to use with middle and high school students who are studying Thoreau.
