Goodread member reviews (only 5 of the 3 web page lengths of reviews): Phoenix2 (Sep 21, 2013) liked it. (3 of 5 Stars) Keywords: classicals fans, teens, kids: This was a gift from my teachers when I finished elementary school. It's a nice read, full of natural scenes, stories about animals and the relationship of the humans with them. Some of them are sad, some of them touching, but all of them interesting. 5 likes Abigail Hilton (Nov 28, 2008) really liked it (4 of 5 Stars): I discovered a battered copy of this book in my school library when I was about 10. I found it very.
