Stories about Animals with Illustrations

The novels and stories of the famous Canadian-American writer, artist, and naturalist Ernest Thompson Seton are well known to many generations of readers around the world. There is no child or adult who would remain indifferent to the fates of... the Royal Analostan cat—a life-loving and proud creature of a mysterious breed, the restless puppy Chink, the wild pacing mustang, the brave rabbit with stars on his ears named Jack—the Fighting Horse, the enterprising crow Silver Spot, the intelligent and courageous giant wolf Lobo, and the brave black-brown fox Domino. The stories told by Seton are true biographies of animals, in which expressive portraits full of keen and accurate observations are combined with vivid, captivating, and sometimes dramatic plots. This edition will make a wonderful gift for all fans of Seton’s works. The book includes all four main collections of stories, separate tales, and the famous novella "Little Savages," which tells about the adventures of boys on forest farms in Canada. The texts are accompanied by numerous author illustrations. Many works are presented in new translations.
