La foresta di Duncton

The characters feel so real and relatable, yet their animal traits add a layer of whimsy. I wonder what inspired this balance in storytelling.

The detailed descriptions of Duncton Wood made it feel like a living character itself. Were these inspired by real forests or entirely imagined?

This point of view added a unique layer of innocence and insight. I'm curious whether the author considered other narrative styles before choosing this one.
