Wildlife in Woods and Fields

Wildlife in Woods and Fields is the first book in a much-loved and delightful series of natural history lessons for children, first published in the late nineteenth century by Arabella Buckley. The narrative follows the seasonal exploits of friends Peter, Peggy, and Paul as they navigate the wonders of the natural world, making discoveries and building relationships with the flowers and animals through first-hand observation. In this book the three friends learn about spiders, moles, cats, ants, woodpeckers, spring flowers, and so much more.

To accompany the reading of this book we highly recommend its picture-book companion, Natural History Pictures for a Living Education: Wildlife in Woods and Fields, which can be purchased individually or as part of a special bundle here.
