Little Nature Studies for Little People

John Burroughs' nature writing is genuinely beautiful, and there's real value in introducing children to careful, literary observation of the natural world. The honest challenge is that the 19th-century prose style will require significant adult mediation for modern children, and the authorship attribution on this reprint is muddled in a way that matters if you're buying for accuracy. Best suited to homeschooling families already committed to classical or nature-study curricula who know what they're getting.
