The Adventures of Chatterer the Red Squirrel by Maddie Frost
This new edition of the classic story introduces a new generation of young readers to Thornton W. Burgess’ irresistible cast of animal friends in his timeless collection of Bedtime Stories. Newly updated with original cover art, this edition invites a new audience to read about the antics of Chatterer the Red Squirrel as the mischief-maker escapes Shadow the Weasel and Redtail the Hawk. As with all Burgess’ charming tales, young readers will learn important lessons about curiosity, carelessness, and mistrust as well as true-to-life behaviors of our favorite woodland animals. Plus, these pages are filled with the original black-and-white artwork by Harrison Cady from the first edition of the Bedtime Stories.Thornton Waldo Burgess, a devoted naturalist and conservationist, knew that instilling a love of the natural world in young people was one of the best ways to inspire conservation in adults. His writings spanned over fifty years, more than 170 books and 15,000 articles, and inspired several generations.Many of Burgess' observations of nature were featured in his stories, and his many characters, including Peter Rabbit, Jimmy Skunk, Sammy Jay, Bobby Raccoon, Joe Otter, Grandfather Frog, and many others, displayed both animal and human traits that were very recognizable to readers. The Boston Museum of Science awarded Burgess a special gold medal for "leading children down the path to the wide wonderful world of the outdoors. Burgess lived in Massachusetts.
