Editions from the 1930s are considered vintage and are sought after by collectors, especially those interested in early 20th-century children’s literature or the works of Thornton Burgess.

This Early editions features original cover art and illustrations, such as those by Harrison Cady, which are prized for their historical and artistic value. This one includes color plates or special endpapers. 

The story itself is a classic, using animal tales to teach children about nature, hard work, and friendship, with accurate details about beaver behavior and gentle moral lessons
