General Note:

"This Moody Publishers edition is based on the manuscript in the Pierpont Morgan Library, published as a first edition in 1843. Some artistic license has been taken in the anthropomorphic story--both illustrative and narrative--for the purposes of the characters' development and the reimagining of them in an animal world. In addition, we made minor updates for spelling, punctuation, and style"--Title page verso.
