When Peter brings a tiny red newt to school, his classmates embark on a year-long journey of discovery. As they build a terrarium, observe their pet, and learn about the natural world, the children develop curiosity, responsibility, and respect for living things. Written in a clear, engaging style and illustrated by Henry Bugbee Kane, Little Red Newt is a timeless introduction to nature study for young readers. This work is in the public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.
