Among the Meadow People
Clara Dillingham Pierson and F. C. Gordon
When a butterfly goes calling, meadow society takes notice. Pierson's first nature storybook introduces the robins building their nest, the selfish tent-caterpillar, and all the small folk of the grass, each tale a tiny fable with real natural history tucked inside. A read-aloud favorite for the youngest naturalists. Part the grass gently and look. Please note: this is the text of the story only. It has no pictures, so it is meant for a grown-up to read aloud rather than for a child to read alone. The illustrated experience of this story is the audiobook edition on Littletone.
