| Summary | "Tommy Smith's Animals" by Edmund Selous is a children’s storybook written in the late 19th century. The narrative follows a young boy, Tommy Smith, who initially exhibits cruel behavior toward animals, but through various encounters with talking creatures, he learns valuable lessons about kindness and respect for nature. Each chapter introduces different animals, including a hare, a frog, and a snake, providing them with distinct personalities and wisdom as they interact with Tommy. The opening of the book introduces Tommy as a boy who cruelly mistreats animals without realizing the harm he causes. The animals, tired of his behavior, gather for a meeting led by a wise owl to discuss how to handle Tommy's mistreatment. Instead of punishing him, they decide to teach him about their abilities and the importance of respecting all living creatures. The meeting establishes the central theme of the book: educating children on animal welfare and empathy. Tommy's journey of transformation begins as he is exposed to the perspectives of the animals he once harmed, setting the stage for the profound lessons that will unfold throughout the story.
