Excerpt from Our Common Friends and Foes: A Nature Reader

Because of its inherent appeal to the fancy, make-believe, and curiosity of children, the story affords a natural approach to the facts of nature, and furnishes an adequate stimulus for develop ing research ideals and habits. This use of the story was first suggested to the author by the interest children manifest in Peter Rabbit and stories of a similar character. It seemed a great waste that this absorbing interest should be used to so little purpose.
