ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Abel Chapman

Abel Chapman was a man who lived a long time ago and really liked nature and animals. He would go on trips to different places and write about all the different animals he saw and the things they did. He even wrote a big book called "Wild Norway" where he talked about all the cool things he saw in Norway.

Not only did he like writing about animals, but he also liked to hunt and fish. This means he would go out to try and catch animals like birds and fish. Some people might not like hunting, but Abel Chapman thought it was important to know about the animals and take care of them so they could live healthy lives.

Abel Chapman also liked to draw pictures of the animals he saw. He wasn't the best artist, but he tried really hard and wanted to show people what the animals looked like.

Nowadays, people still read Abel Chapman's books and look at his pictures to learn about animals and nature. Even if you can't go to the places he went to, you can still learn a lot from him and maybe even get inspired to explore nature yourself.
