MABEL OSGOOD WRIGHT'S 



Gray Lady and the Birds 



STORIES OF THE 

 BIRD YEAR 

 FOR SCHOOL 

 AND HOME 



With thirty -six plates in 

 half-tone, and twelve 

 in colors, from studies 

 made for the National 

 Audubon Association 

 under the supervision 

 of its President, 

 Mr. William Dutcher 



The book will be welcomed by adults 

 almost as heartily as by younger readers. 



For teachers and parents and all who 

 believe in bird protection, it provides a 

 means of sharing their pleasure in bird life 

 with the children just when they will most 

 gladly receive it. 



It is accurate and, on the scientific side, 

 dependable, but it is far more than that; 

 it is a fascinating book of stories, a glimpst 

 into the riches of poetry and fancy asso- 

 ciated with feathered things.

This was described by C. H. M., in Science, as "by far the best bird book for 

 boys and girls yet published in America," and the statement has remained undisputed 

 up to the publication of "Gray Lady and the Birds," which is by one of its authors.
