The delightful fantasy, the light and rollicking humor, the ever present sense of danger, emerge as tensely thrilling and exciting as life itself in the forest. In this new book the author tells the absorbing story of the first year in the lives of Bambi's children. The twin fauns, Geno and Gurri, grow up to learn all the dangers, joys and terrors of life in the wild. They chatter and fuss like human children and Faline the doe guards and protects them as all mothers do. Man, though not always the enemy, for he nurses the wounded Gurri back to health, still remains the great killer, and it is he who gives occasion for Bambi's supreme adventure in heroism. A new classic, a sure delight-so one does not hesitate to name Bambi's Children. Bambi by FELIX SALTEN Turs is the life story of Bambi, a forest deer. As soon as he is born, young Bambi learns the way of the woods. His mother teaches him how to stand on his wobbly legs, and soon he talks with the cricket and the butterfly. He basks in the kindly sun and life is glorious. Soon Bambi grows older and discovers that life can be dangerous as well as beautiful. He experiences his first winter. He is hunted and becomes aware of death. But soon Spring arrives and he again meets the beautiful doe, Faline, who becomes his wife. When John Galsworthy saw this book just before it was published, he read it with great enthusiasm and wrote: "Bambi is a delicious book. Delicious not only for children but for those who are no longer so fortunate. For delicacy of perception and essential truth I hardly know any story of animals that can stand beside this life study of a forest deer."
