About
How would you like to escape into a nostalgic world of childhood innocence when reading to your kiddies?
This book will take you there.
The Bedtime Book that kiddies adore and parents love it even more!
Old Mother West Wind Tales is an utterly delightful updated version of the century-old classic by Thornton W. Burgess, rewritten in a lyrical and easier-to-read-aloud poetical style for today's parents.
Children delight in the mischievous antics of the animals and birds of the Grassy Green Meadow and the Windily Wood. All the old favorites--Johnny Chuck, fly-gobbling Grandfather Frog, Jimmy Skunk, and sly Reddy Fox—are joined in their adventures by new characters such as Billy Brock, little Zoëy Otter, and her brother Otty, Sneezle the Weasel, and Toby Cockles the Terrapin.
Fun facts about the real-life habits of the animals portrayed in the stories are found after each chapter, offering educational insights into wildlife.
These gentle rhyming bedtime tales from a timeless world charm adults as much as children.

These wholesome stories encourage friendship, kindness, heroism, justice, and above all, a love of nature and respect for creatures of the wild. They also cover vanity, pride, wilfulness, bullying, boasting, mischievous pranks, and their karmic comeback. The tales have gentle moral pointers that show the consequences of certain actions, such as, “Whatever you do, will come back on you.”
This book will appeal to lovers of Beatrix Potter's Peter Rabbit, the Brambly Hedge books, Frog and Toad, the Fern Hollow series, and Wind in the Willows.
Even the text has the same size and look as books you read as a child.
