1898009664E.P. Dutton ; Ernest Nister New York London 1898 1898. Hardcover. Good. 48 pages : illustrations ; 22 cm OCLC 18756635 ; illustrated boards ; wear on edges ; "Tattine" by Ruth Ogden is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a young girl named Tattine who grapples with the complexities of growing up love for animals and the realization that nature can be cruel. With her keen observation Tattine navigates her experiences with her pets particularly two setter dogs and finds herself in morally challenging situations concerning the natural behaviors of animals and the impact they have on her sensitive heart. The narrative follows Tattine through a series of adventures and encounters reflecting her innocent yet profound understanding of the world. After witnessing her dogs' natural hunting instincts which lead them to capture a rabbit Tattine struggles with her feelings of love for her pets and her sorrow for the harmed creatures. Throughout the book she also engages with friends goes on imaginative excursions and has heartwarming interactions with family. As Tattine learns about the inherent behaviors of different animals she begins to understand the concept of nature versus nurture leading to thoughtful reflections on compassion responsibility and the idea that while certain behaviors are instinctual love can guide our actions towards kindness. Overall "Tattine" presents a beautiful coming-of-age tale filled with heartfelt lessons that resonate with both children and adults. ; Contents: Chapter I Trouble No. 1 -- Chapter Ii.

Ich fragte meinen Mann soeben: "wie soll ich ihn denn anreden" und oben steht seine Antwort die meinem Herzen am meisten wohl thut. Gottlob sein Befinden ist derart dass er gestern zum ersten mal gewagt hat von 1/2 10 - bis Abends um 7 aufzubleiben d.h. angezogen auf dem Bett liegend aber doch wiederholt aufstehend und auch am Schreibtisch sitzend. Die Nacht war nach diesem Versuch nach 6 monatl. Krankenlager mit täglichem Fieber gut und auch heute Befinden u. Aussehen verhältnissmssig befriedigend. Das bisherige Kalte u. stürmische Wetter hat seine Genesung sehr gehindert. Heute ist milderes Regenwetter. Viell. kommt die Sonne heraus und mein geliebter vielgeprüfter unsäglich geduldiger Eheliebster kann wenigstens auf dem schönen Balkon sitzen. Wir hoffen auch den Seider wie sonst wenn auch in stiller Zweisamkeit begehen zu können. Für Ihr gütiges Anerbieten die Correctur am 2 Bd. besorgen zu wollen herzlichen Dank. Lazarus weiss was ein Oberrabbiner von Szegedin zu thun hat. followed by a sentence not legible . aber er wird Ihr Anerbieten gern annehmen wenn auch die Sache weit im Felde ist da die vergangenen 6 Monate für die Arbeit verloren waren. Wir senden Ihnen "Lazarus' Sprüche" seinen Vortrag "Was heisst" usw. - und kleines biographisches Fragment das mal Sie wie wenige Menschen interessieren wird. followed by a sentence not legible . Mit besten Grüssen and Ihre Lieben von uns beiden und herzlichsten Wünschen für einen glücklichen Sonntag Ihre Nahida Ruth Lazarus. Lassen Sie - später bei froher Musse doch wieder ein Blättchen herfliegen! Unsere Adresse ist immer dieselbe. Kommissionsverlag von Eduard Heinrich Mayer unknown
