While visiting the Ingalls home in De Smet, SD last week I noticed this book in the display cabinet in the corner of the parlour. In her books Laura names it Wonders of the Animal World. But the book in the cabinet was called The Polar and Tropical Worlds by Dr. G. Hartwig. These was also another copy of the same book in the museum in Walnut Grove.
I googled and found this site where you can read this book online. Go to http://books.google.ca/books?id=Ed8UAAAAYAAJ&dq=Polar+and+Tropical+Worlds&printsec=frontcover&source=bl&ots=gxluFclAyO&sig=J3LFrt6sB0JJukAMTmDC02JOMrg&hl=en&ei=xmqxSv4MkuDxBoDk3ZcF&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1#v=onepage&q=&f=false

Thanks for digging around Marilyn and finding this.
