Ferdinand
Ferdinand was a book originally
written for little children, but since
its first publication it has been more
widely read by grown-ups than by children*
It is princii.'alV ^^^ sidsry of a
bull called Ferdinand who lives in
Spain, All his brothers grow up to be
big bulls, v/ho are sent to Madrid to be
fought in the rings—but not Ferdinand®
He would ir.uch rather sit in the fieldup
all day and listen to the b rds and
smell the flowers.
How Ferdinand finally goes to Madrid
makes up a very clever and humorous
storyo There are illustrations throughout the story; and, in all, it takes only abojt ten minutes to reado For those
who haven^t ali-eac^ read it, it would be
well worth the small time it taices to
read about Ferdinand»
