DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Wild Animals at Home My travels in search of light on the "Animals at Home" have taken me up and down the Rocky Mountains for nearly thirty years. In the canyons from British Columbia to Mexico, I have lighted my campfire, far beyond the bounds of law and order, at times, and yet I have found no place more rewarding than the Yellowstone Park, the great mountain haven of wild life. Whenever travellers penetrate into remote regions where human hunters are unknown, they find the wild things half tame, little afraid of man, and inclined to stare curiously from a distance of a few paces. But very soon they learn that man is their most dangerous enemy, and fly from him as soon as he is seen. It takes a long time and much restraint to win back their confidence. In the early days of the West, when game abounded and when fifty yards was the extreme deadly range of the hunters weapons, wild creatures were comparatively tame.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Wild Animals I Have Known: And 200 Drawings These stories are true. Although I have left the strict line of historical truth in many places, the animals in this book were all real characters. They lived the lives I have depicted, and showed the stamp of heroism and personality more strongly by far than it has been in the power of my pen to tell.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKI have aimed to show something of the little aspects of the creatures' lives, which are those that the ordinary traveller will see; I go with him indeed, pointing out my friends as they chance to pass, adding a few comments that should make for a better acquaintance on all sides. And I have offered glimpses, wherever possible, of the wild thing in its home, embodying in these chapters the substance of many lectures given under the same title as this book.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOVER HALF A MILLION COPIES SOLD! Winner of the E.B. White Read Aloud Award It started the summer of 2002, when the Springfield librarian, Molly McGrew, by mistake drove her bookmobile into the zoo. In this rollicking rhymed story, Molly introduces birds and beasts to this new something called reading. She finds the perfect book for every animal—tall books for giraffes, tiny ones for crickets. “She even found waterproof books for the otter, who never went swimming without Harry Potter.” In no time at all, Molly has them “forsaking their niches, their nests, and their nooks,” going “wild, simply wild, about wonderful books.” Judy Sierra’s funny animal tale coupled with Marc Brown’s lush, fanciful paintings will have the same effect on young Homo sapiens. Altogether, it’s more fun than a barrel of monkeys!

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from On the Edge of the Wilderness: Tales of Our Wild Animal Neighbors The author acknowledges indebtedness to more than one acquaintance for observed records of animal behavior, which he has incorporated in these tales. His thanks are especially due to William Sargood, Deputy Game Warden for Southern Berkshire (Massachusetts), to Hamilton Gibson, to Walter King Stone, and to Warwick S. Carpenter, of the New York State Conservation Commission. The primary object of the stories being, however, to reconstruct imaginatively the life of the wild creatures while they are not under observation, but living out their normal existence, the author would not seem in any way to shift the responsibility for the natural history herein contained.
