"It comes straight from the heart, and from a kindly heart at 

 that. Mrs. Earle had the good fortune as a child to pass her sum- 

 mers in an old-time garden. There she laid in a great store of 

 knowledge of the ways of children among flowers, a store that she 

 is now able to draw upon at will and in most delightful fashion, so 

 that one of her best chapters is about childhood in a garden."
