ISBN10: 1789871034, ISBN13: 9781789871036, [publisher: Pantianos Classics] Softcover nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Margaret Gatty's parables celebrate the natural world and provision life guidance: wise and attentive, their moral lessons are valuable for persons of all ages.Many of the stories within contain memorable and commonsense examples of acting the right way. Using the beauty of nature as a medium for expression, the author demonstrates the importance of good conduct and living a life by firm principles. While the teachings are simple to grasp, the author lavishes her stories with expressive language and vocabulary, which serves to make the narrations easier to recall, while offering a challenge for younger readers eager to improve their English skills. Unconstrained by preconceived notions of teaching, Margaret Gatty's fullest talents and instinctive abilities are displayed in these parables. Not content merely with dispensing lessons, the author wants readers to think and appreciate the greatness of the outdoors and the majesty of nature. An overarching lesson in most of these tales is having respect and taking joy in the Earth in which we are born. Born in England in 1809, Margaret Gatty realized her interests in both writing and the natural world from a young age. In adulthood, she was a notable contributor in the field of marine biology - in the modern day, it is for these parables that she is best remembered. ...

MP3 Audio CD. Parables from Nature A LESSON OF FAITH "If a man die, shall he live again? All the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come."—JOB xiv. 14. "LET me hire you as a nurse for my poor children," said a Butterfly to a quiet Caterpillar, who was strolling along a cabbage-leaf in her odd lumbering way. "See these little eggs," continued the Butterfly; "I don't know how long it will be before they come to life, and I feel very sick and poorly, and if I should die, who will take care of my baby butterflies when I am gone?

Here, take this gold-dust from my wings as a reward. Oh, how dizzy I am! Caterpillar! you will remember about the food——" And with these words the Butterfly closed her eyes and died; and the green ...
