Omschrijving

The Golden-Breasted Kootoo, written by Laura Elizabeth Richards and first published in 1899, is a charming and heartwarming children's book that tells the story of a young girl named Polly who lives in the countryside. One day, while exploring the woods, Polly comes across a beautiful bird with a golden breast - the titular Golden-Breasted Kootoo. She is immediately enchanted by the bird's beauty and decides to take it home with her as a pet.However, as Polly soon learns, keeping a wild bird as a pet is not as easy as she thought. The Kootoo is unhappy and refuses to eat, and Polly realizes that she has made a mistake. She decides to release the bird back into the wild, where it belongs, and learns an important lesson about the importance of respecting nature and wild animals.Throughout the book, Richards weaves themes of nature, conservation, and the importance of empathy and compassion towards animals. The story is beautifully illustrated with charming black-and-white drawings, and is sure to captivate young readers with its engaging plot and lovable characters.Overall, The Golden-Breasted Kootoo is a timeless classic that continues to be beloved by generations of children and adults alike. It is a must-read for anyone who loves nature, animals, and heartwarming stories with important life lessons.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
