Mother West Wind Why Stories (Illustrated)

Why are certain animals able to do things that others cannot? Why do some look one way and others another? While some of the answers to these questions may be obvious to some adults, through his genius, Burgess manages to provide answers that children can understand, even if they are not biologically or evolutionarily accurate. The stories and illustrations are simply wonderful, and they make great bedtime stories.

This edition of the book contains the eight, original, rejuvenated illustrations, and an additional two time- and place relevant, and unique to this edition.
