Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wonders of Animal Ingenuity N the pleasant days when we have not long begun to look on a wonderful world peopled with beings great and small all living their busy lives after their own fashion, most of us are in some respects nearer to understanding the ways of the myriad creatures which share the earth with us than we have ever the good fortune to be in later years. Before a sparrow becomes for us only a sparrow, or we have been taught to associate the word horrid with a score of interesting and often beautiful little animals which we meet day by day, the things that happen in animal-land are not passed over with unseeing eyes; the earth is filled with romance, and we live in a true fairyland. From a few fortunate ones the spell is never lifted; for them its fascination grows stronger with time, andsthe story becomes constantly more engrossing, for it is one whose secret, though ever unfolding, can never be wholly revealed.
