Autorenporträt
Thornton W. Burgess (1874-1965) was an American author and naturalist best known for his enthralling children's books that brought the animal world to life. Burgess, who was born on January 14, 1874, in Sandwich, Massachusetts, and died on June 5, 1965, was a fervent advocate for nature education and conservation. Burgess is well recognized for his charming animal stories that combine fiction and natural history knowledge. He created endearing characters and fascinating narratives that both delighted and taught young readers about various animal behaviors and ecosystems. "Old Granny Fox," a children's book released in 1918, is one of his best-known works. The story is part of Burgess' long-running series "The Adventures of Johnny Chuck," which features a cast of endearing animal characters who teach important life lessons while navigating their wooded setting. "Old Granny Fox" follows the shrewd and crafty Granny Fox as she attempts to outwit her fellow forest dwellers. Burgess' storytelling not only instills a sense of adventure, but also crucial lessons about the consequences of one's actions and the delicate balance of nature.
