Human Being and the Animal World

A wonderful comparative introduction to animals and humans for children written in Charles Kovacs's warm and expressive style.Charles Kovacs taught in Edinburgh so there is a Scottish flavour to the animals discussed in the first half of the book, including seals, red deer and eagles. In the later chapters, he covers elephants, horses and bears.This is a fascinating and engaging resource for teachers and home schoolers that is used in the Steiner-Waldorf curriculum for 9–11 year olds.
