About the author
Born in South Shields, England, on August 14, 1860, Ernest Thompson Seton was raised in Canada after his family moved there in 1866. He became known as a naturalist, wildlife artist, and writer whose close observation of animals gave his stories unusual vividness and feeling.
Seton reached a wide audience with books such as Wild Animals I Have Known (1898), which helped make him one of the best-known writers of animal stories in his time. Alongside his writing and illustration, he promoted outdoor education and founded the Woodcraft Indians, a movement that encouraged nature study, practical skills, and respect for the outdoors.
He was also one of the early figures involved in the founding of the Boy Scouts of America. Seton died on October 23, 1946, in Seton Village near Santa Fe, New Mexico, leaving behind a body of work that blended storytelling, field knowledge, and a lasting love of the natural world.
