Flower Children: The Little Cousins of the Field and Garden

By Elizabeth Gordon

Pansies like the shaded places;
With their little friendly faces,
Always seem to smile and say:
"How are all the folks to-day?"
Nostalgia enthusiasts of all ages will treasure this illustrated collection of eighty-four flower poems. Originally published in 1910, the colorful book features cute anthropomorphic images of blossoms, presented in the order of their bloom cycles. Catchy rhymes about an eager daffodil, pretty honeysuckle, and other blooms offer children a wonderful introduction to nature's beauty.
