THE NEW NATURE. LIBRARY 
Too few parents realize the importance of developing in children a love for “‘the little brothers of the woods and fields.” 
A lively interest in the birds and flowers and in all living things, strengthens character, adds to the joys of life;’and makes men 
and women who are physically and mentally sound. Let the children find their pleasures out of doors, where the sun shines 
and the air is pure, let their interest in nature be directed in the right channels, and they will be provided with the material 
for far healthier, happier, and less perplexed and anxious lives than many parents are now living. ‘The Nature Library is not 
a technical work. It is written simply and clearly and is easily understood. To make it more useful to parents and 
children we have prepared 
A KEY TO THE NATURE LIBRARY 
This extra volume will be included in the set in the future. It gives suggestions for the everyday use of the volumes in the 
home, suggests subjects of study for every season in the year and outlines regular reading that may be done. Miss Rogers, 
the author of the ‘‘Key,” is particularly interested in the way the Nature Library may be used for very young children and she 
shows how easy it is io “make up”’ lively stories for the little ones from the descriptions of animals, birds, and flowers given 
in the different volumes. 
There are in the Nature Library over 
6000 pages, 430 plates in color, nearly 4000 half-tones, most of them from life, and 2590 other illustrations, in 
_all 7000 pictures of Animals, Birds, Fish, Butterflies, Moths, Insects, Wild Flowers, Trees, Reptiles, Shells, etc.
