Through vivid depictions of a dozen family groupings, the author demonstrates that mother animals and birds often train their young in order to supplement their natural instincts. The deer and her fawns, the black bear and her cubs, the fishhawk and her nestlings, the keen-eyed heron, the stupid porcupine, and the mighty moose are some of the animals whose teachings are described in this book. Suitable for ages 10 and up.

This book tells the story of Mooweesuk, the raccoon who was called the bear's little brother by both Indians and naturalists because of the many ways in which he resembles the "big prowler in the black coat." Learn about the coon's secret habits, and read stories about the woodcock, wildcat, toad, and many other animals. Two chapters remarkable for their insight into the hidden life of animals close this volume, one on Animal Surgery, describing some of the ways in which wild animals treat their wounds; the other on Hunting without a Gun, showing the joy of following even the large and dangerous animals with the desire only to be near and understand them.
