June 26, 2009 - Bambi and His Mother |
"The little fawn understood not one of the many songs and calls, not a word of the conversations.
He did not even listen to them. Nor did he heed any of the odors which blew through the woods.
He only heard the soft licking against his coat that washed him and warmed him and kissed him.
And he smelled nothing but his mother's body near him. She smelled good to him and, snuggling
closer to her, he hunted eagerly around and found the nourishment for his life."
~excerpt from Bambi by Felix Salten
Have you read the original Bambi written in 1929?
Ahhhh... so lovely. |

| Bambi was one of the most powerful books of my childhood. I read it during the time that I also devoured Lassie, Come Home, Black Beauty and The Incredible Journey. Old Yeller was the horror story of my youth. I still shudder when I see the cover of the book or movie. It was so sad. |
