    language (Law. Press, Aug. 29, 2018)
    First published in1922, “Woodland Tales” is a charming collection of classic short animals stories for children of all ages. Ernest Thompson Seton (1860 – 1946) was an English author and wildlife artist who founded the Woodcraft Indians in 1902. He was also among the founding members of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA), established in 1910. He wrote profusely on this subject, the most notable of his scouting literature including “The Birch Bark Roll” and the “Boy Scout Handbook”. Seton was also an early pioneer of animal fiction writing, and he is fondly remembered for his charming book “Wild Animals I Have Known” (1898). This collection is perfect bedtime reading for animal-loving children and would make for a worthy addition to any collection. Contents include: “Blue-eyes, the Snow-child, or the Story of Hepatica”, “The Story of the Dawnsinger, or How the Bloodroot Came”, “The Prairie-girl with Yellow Hair”, “The Cat's-eye Toad, a child of Maka Ina”, “How the Bluebird Came”, “Robin, the Bird that Loves to Make Clay Pots”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.

    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, June 27, 2016)
    If you were alone in the woods, would you know what to do? How good a woodsman are you? Can you light a fire without matches? Can you make a sun dial quickly, with materials on hand? Cam you lay a good cooking fire? Can you find your way without a compass? In a pouring rain can you kindle a fire? Can you recognize poison ivy? Can you tie all kinds of knots? Can you erect a tepee? Are you at home in big timber, in the mountains, in a frail canoe on lakes or streams? Wherever there are woods and mountains and lakes, wherever the campfire crackles, wherever the hoot of the owl or the growl of the bear is heard, wherever the Indian sends the smoke of his signal fire toward the heavens, wherever the winds are fresh with the fragrance of pine, wherever the spirit of such things is alive in city home or remote cabin – there the name of Ernest Thompson Seton is a name to conjure with! In all the world this great woodsman is best equipped to tell you the complete story of the great out–of-doors, with all its fascination and nature lore. Beginning with “things to see in springtime,” this extraordinary volume introduces all the seasons and it is an eye-opener for natural marvels and quaint discoveries. It sums up with “things to remember” and a rousing woodland song with music. This is “Woodland Tales.”

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Aug. 20, 2012)
    To the Guide These Mother Carey Tales were written for children of all ages, who have not outgrown the delight of a fairy tale. It might almost be said that they were written chiefly for myself, for I not only have had the pleasure of telling them to the little ones, and enjoying their quick response, but have also had the greater pleasure of thinking them and setting them down. As I write, I look from a loved window, across a landscape that I love, and my eye rests on a tall beautiful pine planted with my own hands years ago. It is a mass of green fringes, with gem-like tips of buds and baby cones, beautiful, exquisitely beautiful, whether seen from afar as a green spire, or viewed close at hand as jewellery. It is beautiful, fragile and unimportant, as the world sees it; yet through its windwaved mass one can get little glimpses of the thing that backs it all, the storm-defying shaft, the enduring rigid living growing trunk of massive timber that gives it the nobility of strength, and adds value to the rest; sometimes it must be sought for, but it always surely is there, ennobling the lesser pretty things. I hope this tree is a fair image of my fairy tale. I know my child friends will love the piney fringes and the jewel cones, and they can find the unyielding timber in its underlying truth, if they seek for it. If they do not, it is enough to have them love the cones.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
