  • Creekfinding: A True Story is a 2017 nonfiction picture book written by Jacqueline Briggs Martin and illustrated by Claudia McGehee. It tells the story of a stream restoration project by Michael Osterholm, who purchased land in northeastern Iowa where a creek had been diverted decades earlier. As the creek is restored, the wildlife, including the native brook trout, gradually returned to the area and flourished. The book depicts the restoration of the creek with the help of an excavator, which is introduced as a "creekfinding machine". It was published by the University of Minnesota Press on March 1, 2017, and was well received. Critics praised its focus on environmental conservation as well as McGehee's scratchboard illustrations, and in 2018 it received a Riverby Award, which recognizes nature-related books for children, from the John Burroughs Association.
