Wild Creatures in Winter is the fourth and final volume Neil Wayne Northey’s Old Homestead series. Like the previous volumes in the series this is a quick and pleasant children’s book that follows the lives of numerous animals that inhabit the area around the series’ titular location. Unlike the previous three books that could be read out of order, this book needs to be read last as all the animals followed were previously introduced in the other books in the series. Yet despite this one difference from the other books, it’ll still provide enjoyment to young children either reading on their own or being read to by their parents.

Dnf. Poor audio quality.

This is the 4th and last book of the (Old Homestead Tales Series) I have really enjoyed reading them again. We have three sets of these. This is the oldest set which came out in 1930 and 1931. We have another set that I think was issued in the early 60's or late 50's also hardcover. That is the set our parents had when we were growing up. It is very worn out and will need lots of repairs. We also have a paperback set that came out in 1981, which we purchased in 1981. It survived our family of 6 children and a few of the grandchildren. They have fallen apart and parts are missing. It is a very good set of books that the younger children enjoy and will teach them a lot about wildlife.
