"Rollo's Philosophy. [Air]" by Jacob Abbott is a children's educational book written in the mid-19th century. The work is part of the Rollo Series and aims to engage young readers in the study of various philosophical concepts related to the properties of air and its significance in our daily lives. The book likely centers around the character Rollo and his cousin Nathan, who embark on adventures that intertwine play, learning, and exploration of the natural world. The opening of the book sets the scene for a delightful winter expedition with Rollo, Lucy, and Nathan as they journey into the snow-covered landscape. The children prepare for their adventure, which involves building a fire and setting out with a sled, only to find themselves lost in the snow when a storm starts. As they navigate the challenges of their surroundings, Rollo's problem-solving skills come to the forefront when they encounter a track in the snow. Through engaging storytelling, Abbott establishes a blend of adventure and scientific inquiry, inviting readers to ponder the properties of air and their experiences in nature as they follow Rollo and his companions.
