1887 Little Flower People Gertrude HALE Ginn and Co. Boston Botany Textbook
\"Hale\'s Little Flower People\", treats in a charming manner suitable for children the facts of vegetable growth. The style is allegorical and by Its use the functions of the plant parts are simply and clearly illustrated. Good use is made of the novel in plant life, to illustrate and fix the developed principles. Some of the more important chapters are: \"The Flower Servants,\" \"The Flower Mistress and Her Seeds.\" and \"The Elfin Ferns.\"
-The Rocky Mountain Educator, Vol. 1 [1895]
THE aim of this book is to tell some of the most important elementary facts connected with plant-life in such a way as to appeal to the child\'s imagination and curiosity, and to awaken an observant interest in the facts themselves, - an interest which may lead the young reader, with fundamental conceptions already gained, and with nothing to unlearn, to take up, later on, the serious study of the great subject of Botany.
