When Jenny Wren learns that Peter Rabbit would like to know more about the four-footed friends who live in the Green Meadows and Green Forest, she recommends Old Mother Nature who is happy to teach him.

She tells Peter about a range of creatures such as Arctic Hare and Antelope Jack, Flying Squirrel, Mountain Beaver, Pocket Gopher, Grasshopper Mouse, Silvery Bat, Mule Deer and Grizzly Bear. This absorbing book teaches children about the many forms of wildlife and the animals' relationships with one another.

The Burgess Animal Book is an entertaining collection of stories which captivates every new generation of young listeners with the wonders of nature.

I honestly was shocked to see a one-star review of this book with no explanation. I have to assume it is a mistake. Burgess' stories may be a bit old-fashioned, but they are wonderful and this narrator (unlike the most prevalent narrator of these stories here on audible) does a lovely job. While we avoid the other narrator at all costs, this recording is lovely. These characters are so full of life, information and fun. I love reading these stories to my children, but I am glad to have a resource which reads to them when I am unable. Totally worth the credit.

A favorite! Read and re-read
