The Burgess Animal Book For Children (Illustrated) (Classic Books for Children 40)

Unknown Author

4.9/5 (32582 ratings)

Description:This book introduces children to many of American's mammals, through a conversation between Mother Nature and many of the animals who attend her school to learn about each other. It has 75 illustrations, all but a few of which are in full color, drawn by Louis Agassiz Fuertes. After John Audubon, Fuertes is considered as one of the most prolific bird illustrators. The book has been completely reformatted for e-book viewing.It is very interesting to note that Mother Nature does not ignore the reality that some of the animals discussed in the book prey on each other. What's important, perhaps, is that Burgess presents the issue as a simple matter of fact. It is not the central theme of the book. Therefore, it will not scare children, but neither will it leave any doubt in their minds that some animals kill other ones.* This e-book is a true representation, hand-transcribed from a high-definition scan of a pre-1923 print version of the book. Unlike other e-copies of the book, it was not produced by using Optical Character Recognizion (OCR). OCR-scanning old books is seldom, if ever, error-free. This often results in an e-book with many **, ^^, >> and typographic errors when OCR can't read the word or punctuation correctly.* "True representation" means that if the print version has any inscriptions or previous owner's name in the front of the book, this e-book might as well. Blank pages that often separate chapters might be left in. And pages that may have a folded corner or other, similar damage might be included, too.* In other words, no changes or as few as possible have been made to either the illustrations or the text in order to bring you an e-book that is as close to the original as possible.Thornton Waldo Burgess (January 14, 1874 – June 5, 1965) was a conservationist and author of children's stories. Burgess loved the beauty of nature and its living creatures so much that he wrote about them for 50 years in books and his newspaper column, "Bedtime Stories". He was sometimes known as the Bedtime Story-Man. By the time he retired, he had written more than 170 books and 15,000 stories for the daily newspaper column.* This ebook is a true representation, high-definition copy of a pre-1923 print version of the book. Unlike other e-copies of the book, it is not a transcription, which may be full of typographic errors. * "Exact" means that if the print version has any inscriptions or previous owner's name in the front of the book, so, too, will this e-book; blank pages that often separate chapters might be left in; and, any pages that may have a folded corner or other, similar factor might be included, too.* In other words, no changes or as few as possible have been made to either the illustrations or the text in order to bring you a book that is as close to the original as possible.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
