Old Mother West Wind (Centennial Anniversary) | Thornton W Burgess
2 posts | 5 read | 2 to read
It's been a century since readers first ventured into the Green Forest to encounter Reddy Fox, Grandfather Frog, Jimmy Skunk, and other winsome characters. This special edition commemorates the 100th anniversary of Thornton W. Burgess's first published work, Old Mother West Wind, and its 1911 follow-up, Mother WestWind's Children. Replete with the original illustrations, these gentle stories offer children enduring lessons about ecology and respect for wildlife."

Took me back to my childhood. I reread those old Green Meadows stories so many times. When I wanted to share them with my daughters, I could only remember Jerry Muskrat. Couldn't remember the author's name either. I'm so glad I decided to do this challenge with @TheBookHippie Thanks. #ChildrensClassics2020
