Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
It's been a century since readers first ventured into the Green Forest to encounter Reddy Fox, Grandfather Frog, Jimmy Skunk, and other winsome characters. This special edition commemorates the 100th anniversary of Thornton W. Burgess's first published work, Old Mother West Wind, and its 1911 follow-up, Mother West Wind's Children. Replete with the original illustrations, these gentle stories offer children enduring lessons about ecology and respect for wildlife.
"This Dover edition ... is an unabridged republication of the following two books: Old Mother West Wind, originally published by Little, Brown, and Company, Boston, in 1910 and Mother West Wind's Children, originally published by Little, Brown, and Company, Boston, in 1911"--Copyright page.
The adventures of Peter Rabbit, Johnny Chuck, Reddy Fox, the Merry Little Breezes, and all their companions in the fields, the woods, and the streams.
