Description
Gather your children together and enjoy this delightful collection of animal poems and short stories from beloved author, Emma Serle. Originally published in 1918, this reprint retains the charming black and white illustrations and content that appeals to both boys and girls.
Sections are divided into flesh eating animals and plant eating animals. In the first section, cats, dogs, seals and sea lions and bears are introduced. The second section focuses on gnawers (beavers, squirrel etc.), the monkey family, thick skinned animals (elephant), cud chewers and the horse family. At the conclusion of each animal chapter, you will find an overview essay of the animal group. While the book of the book references, "All God's creatures His glory do reveal" no Christian content is noted in the stories and poems. Wonderful family read aloud or to engage a reluctant reader for read aloud practice. ~Deanne
