Overview
For the woodland creatures, life in the forest is as charming and harmonious as it is treacherous and uncertain. The newest roe deer, born on a beautiful day in spring, is no exception to this rule and must learn to survive on his own after the death of his mother. Bambi, as he is known, is guided with reluctant kindness by the oldest and largest stag in the forest, “Old Prince,” who teaches the fawn how to navigate his home and the tricks of “He.” Considered to be one of the first environmental novels, Felix Salten’s Bambi (1923) is a coming-of-age tale for the ages.
Professionally typeset with a beautiful cover, this edition of Bambi is a classic of children’s literature reimagined for the modern reader.

About the Author
Read an Excerpt
That evening when Bambi and his mother were playing tag in the meadow, his mother saw her friend the hare and introduced him to Bambi.
"Good evening, young man," said Hare politely.
Bambi thought the hare's long spoonlike ears, which at times stood bolt upright and at others fell back limply as though they had suddenly grown weak, were funny. Bambi had to laugh.
The hare laughed quickly too, but then his eyes grew more thoughtful. To Bambi's surprise he suddenly sat straight up on his hind legs and said to Bambi's mother, "What a charming young prince. I sincerely congratulate you. Yes, indeed, he'll make a splendid prince in time." And with that, the hare excused himself -- "I have all kinds of things to do tonight" -- and hopped off, ears back, so they touched his shoulders.
