Dwellers on the River Banks by Theodore Wood, 1908

This book is part of the Dwellers series collection by Theodor Wood. Dwellers on the Rive Banks introduce children to the animals, plants, insects, and birds found in the river and along it's shores. The stories are intended to teach children about nature in and around our rivers and they provide a beautiful narrative about these areas.

Each chapter is a different story full of humor, yet cleverly conveys information about the shrews, voles, birds, beetles, moths, flies, bees, other residents and often suggests a moral in a delicate manner which no child could resist.

This book is sure to enhance any river nature study curriculum or serve you as a bedtime story companion.
