The author wrote many of these books which are now classics of children's literature. The illustrations are outstanding, not only for their charm but for their accuracy of botanical detail.

These little stories are told in verse. Green binding with a pictorial dust jacket, which has some wrinkles. Originally 2.95 pounds. ; 16mo - over 5¾ - 6¾" tall
