" One of the most simply delightful books about Natural History that has come under our 

 notice since the days of Frank Buckland, whose mantle, indeed, the present author appears 

 to have inherited. Like Buckland, Professor Morgan writes at first hand. The result is a 

 charming volume full of bright and lively anecdotes about all manner of animals, as fresh and 

 simple as if they were being told to a circle of eager listeners, and with just a slight tincture 

 of science in occasionally explaining interesting peculiarities or differences of structure."— 

 Guardian. 



"There is a pervading tone of sympathy with all that lives, as well as a general love and 

 admiration of nature, that renders it a most suitable work for the young. The cover and 

 general get-up are attractive, and every school should add this charming volume to its list of 

 prizes with the certainty that it will be highly appreciated for its own sake by the recipients, 

 and that its influence will be altogether wholesome and good." — Nature. 



" Every page is bright with information and enticing zn^cAox.^." —Westmorland Gazette. 



" An altogether delightful book; the illustrations, moreover, and that is saying a groat 

 deal, are worthy of the text." — Leeds Mercury. 



"A very charming book." — Daily Chronicle. 



" Every boy with a taste for natural history ought to be presented with a copy." — Lady's 

 Pictorial. 



" A charming book about animals." — Saturday Review.
