"Everyday Adventures" by Samuel Scoville is a collection of nature stories from the beginning of the 1900's that shows the wonder of simple, everyday meetings with animals and the natural world. The book encourages people to notice the adventures around them. Scoville uses strong descriptions of plants and animals and shares personal stories about his own experiences. For example, he writes about spending a nice day in May watching birds in a beech wood, where he then saw a family of foxes. He saw the playful curiosity of a fox cub and shows his love for watching animals instead of hunting them. He sees himself as a guardian of wild creatures and wants to share his sense of wonder with the reader, shaping the tone for a careful look at nature.
