Brimming with gentle humor and real lessons about nature, these enchanting tales will captivate today's youngsters as much as they charmed audiences generations ago.

The second volume in Burgess's popular Green Forest series, this collection of heartwarming tales recounts the adventures of Reddy Fox, Grandfather Frog, Jimmy Skunk, and other endearing characters.
