The Adventures of Poor Mrs. Quack by Thornton W. Burgess audiobook.
Genre: fantasy
'Hello, Jerry Muskrat! We'd forgotten all about you,' said Mrs. Quack. 'What was that you said?' Jerry good-naturedly repeated what he had said. Mrs. Quack's face brightened. 'Do you really mean it?' she asked eagerly. 'Do you really mean that you know of a pond where we could live and not be likely to be seen by these two-legged creatures called men?' 'That's what I said,' replied Jerry briefly. 'Oh, Jerry, you're not joking, are you? Tell me you're not joking,' begged Mrs. Quack. 'Of course I'm not joking,' returned Jerry just a little bit indignantly, 'I am not the kind of a fellow to joke people who are in such trouble as you and Mr. Quack seem to be in.'

The Adventures of Buster Bear by Thornton W. Burgess audiobook.
Genre: family
Buster Bear is big, strong, and far too curious for his own good - and in the Green Forest and the Green Meadows, curiosity has a way of attracting trouble. While Old Mother Bear warns her young cub to stay out of danger, Buster cannot resist testing his strength, sniffing out easy meals, and wandering where he does not belong. His prowling brings him into uneasy contact with the watchful forest neighbors who know his reputation: nimble Peter Rabbit, sharp-eyed Johnny Chuck, sneaky Reddy Fox, and other familiar creatures who must decide whether to hide, outwit him, or stand their ground. But the wild has threats even a bear must respect, and the farms at the forest's edge offer temptations that come with real risks. As rumors of Buster's movements ripple through the woods, a lively chain of chases, narrow escapes, and clever warnings unfolds, mixing humor with gentle lessons about caution, responsibility, and respecting other creatures' homes. Thornton W. Burgess turns a simple bear's misadventures into a warm, fast-moving tale that invites listeners to see the natural world as a community full of voices, rules, and surprises.

The Adventures of Reddy Fox by Thornton W. Burgess audiobook.
Genre: adventure
The Adventures of Reddy Fox is another in the series of children’s stories by conservationist Thornton W. Burgess. In this story, Reddy and Granny Fox must outsmart Farmer Brown’s Boy who is out to get Reddy for stealing his pet chicken. Along the way, Reddy encounters many of the citizens of the Green Meadows and the Green Forest and with him we learn little lessons about life such as: the perils of being a show off; the importance of using all of one’s senses; that it is a fine thing to show sympathy and kindness to others – even our enemies; and that the value of a grandmother’s wisdom is inestimable.
We also learn that after you’ve stolen a boy’s pet chicken and he is coming your way with a gun, a shovel and a hound dog, it may be time to beat a hasty retreat.
