The short stories of Ernest Thompson Seton are renowned for voicing great passion for the lives of animals and nature through rich, expressive and entertaining narration.
Lauded as an appreciator of the great outdoors, Seton deftly brings the natural world to life, his descriptions of creatures roaming the forests, plains and hills accurate and evocative. Each tale describes the animal characters and their place of habitat, plus their encounters with other residents nearby. Not only will readers enjoy the stories of the young rabbit Raggylug and Lobo the notorious wolf, they will also learn how critters make their homes, gather food, communicate and live day by day.
Ernest Seton was famous for founding the Boy Scouts of America, an organization which sought to promote interest and respect for natural environments. Since his death in 1946, Seton's written works have retained a treasured place in popular culture, in part thanks to their wide publication across the world, and to several modern adaptations of the stories. Particular interest emerged from Japan, where multiple animated cartoon series were produced from the 1970s onward.
