The Bedtime Book that Begs to be Read Aloud
Old Mother West Wind Tales is an updated version of the century-old classic by Thornton W. Burgess, rewritten in a lyrical and easier-to-read-aloud modern style.
Children will delight in the mischievous antics of the animals and birds of the Grassy Green Meadow and the Windily Wood. All the old favourites--Johnny Chuck, fly-gobbling Grandfather Frog, Jimmy Skunk, and sly Reddy Fox-are joined in their adventures by new characters such as Billy Brock, little Zoëy Otter and her brother Otty, Sneezle the Weasel, and Toby Cockles the Terrapin.
Fun facts about the real-life habits of the animals portrayed in the stories are found after each chapter.
These gentle rhyming bedtime tales from a timeless world will charm adults as well as children.
Discover... - How the Merry Little Breezes Saved Mrs. Redwing's Eggs- Why Grandfather Frog has no tail- Why Jimmy Skunk wears stripes- How Pee-Tee the Prankster Rabbit got his Comeuppance.- How Reddy Fox had a Terrible Fright- How Little Zoëy Otter Saved Grandfather Frog How Mischievous Acts have Consequences- Who Found the Best Thing in the World
These wholesome and delightful stories for bedtime reading were rewritten to introduce them to English children, therefore a few of the original characters have been changed into more well-known animals of the British countryside.
This book will appeal l to lovers of Beatrix Potter, Brambly Hedge, and the Animals of Farthing Wood.
