Subjects include muskrats preparing a home, Christmas in the woods, buzzards nesting and much more.

It is joy in breathing the air of the fields; joy in seeing, hearing, living the life of the fields; joy in knowing and loving all that lives with you in your out-of-doors." - Dallas Lore SharpThis edition is complete and unabridged and features all of the illustrations from the 1922 printing to provide the best possible reading experience.
