Old Mother West Wind

by Thornton W. Burgess Author

Thornton W. Burgess said that imagination was "the birthright of every child." His Old Mother West Wind stories, first published in 1910, have worked their magic on generations of children. The simple, pastoral stories and the mischievous characters who inhabit Burgess's woodlands are part of an American childhood.
