Hawkes, Clarence. [Shaggycoat; the biography of a beaver]; il. by Charles Copeland. **$1.25. Jacobs.
Shaggycoat easily wins and holds every nature student’s attention. He is a member of a fast vanishing animal family, but sturdily upholds the traditions of his four-footed antecedents. The book reveals the habits, haunts and occupations of the beaver, shows how his nomadic habit leads him close to his enemies at times, and gives now and then a bit of primitive superstition which even greedy trappers heed.
