Known for gentle, imaginative children's stories, this early 20th-century writer created a small world of squirrels, rabbits, and mice facing everyday adventures with charm and humor. Her books have a light, storybook feel that still suits young listeners.

Edith B. Davidson was an American writer of children's stories. Public-domain library records identify her as born in 1875, and her surviving works show a clear fondness for animal characters, cozy woodland settings, and playful titles.
Her best-known books include The Blowing Away of Mr. Bushy Tail (1910), Nibbles Poppelty-Poppett (1911), and The Bunnikins-Bunnies and the Moon King (1912). These stories belong to the tradition of early children's fiction that mixes fantasy, nature, and small-scale adventure in a warm, approachable way.
Not much detailed biographical information appears to be widely available online, so her books tell most of the story. What comes through in them is a lively imagination and an easy affection for the miniature dramas of the animal world.
