Elizabeth Brightwen discovered that patience and gentleness could win the trust of nearly any wild creature. In this beloved Victorian classic she tells of the robins, squirrels, and other small visitors she befriended at her country home: how a wild thing learns to take food from a hand, and what such trust teaches the giver. Her quiet stories radiate tenderness without sentimentality. A soothing, restorative listen for anyone who has ever wished a wild creature would stay a moment longer.
