    About this ebook

    Confides the author: “These stories were written for my own amusement during a period of enforced seclusion. The flowers which were my solace and pleasure suggested titles for the tales...” This 1888 collection  includes “May Flowers,” “An Ivy Spray and Ladies’ Slippers,” “Pansies,” “Water-Lilies,” “Poppies and Wheat,” “Little Button-Rose,” and “Mountain-Laurel and Maiden-Hair.”
