Beschreibung
Whitefoot the Wood Mouse is a delightful children's book written by Thornton W. Burgess, an acclaimed author renowned for his stories featuring anthropomorphic animal characters. This story is from Burgess's well-known Old Mother West Wind series. The plot centres around Whitefoot, a shy and inquisitive wood mouse that lives in the Green Forest. Whitefoot's adventures begin when he becomes enthralled by a swaying patch of goldenrod. Curiosity drives him to travel further away from home than he has ever gone before, and he quickly finds himself in unknown country. Along the voyage, Whitefoot meets a variety of animal companions, including Sammy Jay, Bobby Raccoon, and Johnny Chuck, who assist him in navigating the rigors of the wilderness. Whitefoot learns essential life lessons about bravery, ingenuity, and the interconnectivity of nature as he explores the world around him. He meets threats, such as the clever Reddy Fox, but with the help of his new companions and his own skills, Whitefoot outwits his opponents.
