The Disappointed Squirrel and Other Stories is a charming collection of short stories concerning the daily lives and adventures of various animals. William Henry Hudson (1841 - 1922) was an Argentinian naturalist, author, and ornithologist. Other notable works by this author include: Argentine Ornithology (1888-1899), British Birds (1895), and A Shepherd’s Life (1910). This lovely collection will appeal to nature lovers both young and old, and it would make for a superb addition to collections of vintage literature. Contents include: Adventures with Foxes , The Disappointed Squirrel , Jack Jackdaw and some Other Birds , The Man Who Ate a Heron , My Friend the Pig , Cristiano: A Horse , Mary’s Little Lamb , A Friendly Rat , The Potato at Home and in England , The Little Red Dog , and Johnny-Go-to-Bed-at-Noon . Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction.
