Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Children's Book of Gardening This book was suggested by the questions of a boy of twelve who lived in Germany and sent for an English book that would teach him the elements Of gardening. One Of the authors asked the editor of a well-known gardening journal to recommend her a suitable book, and found that he knew Of none written from a child's point of View, and supplying the instruc tion a child could understand and use. Yet in these days, when so many children have a garden, such a book must be needed. The aim in this one has been to tell the juvenile reader how to make his garden grow, and the authors have not allowed themselves to wander in the pleasant byways of description, reflection, or amusement. They wished to help the budding gardener rather than to entertain the child, and they have tried. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of the Home Garden The following pages were originally written for small children; as such they appeared in the Coun try Gentleman under the title The Child's Gar den. Gardening is such a big problem I was anxious to make it understandable to the begin ner's mind. Since our entrance into the World's War the knowledge of the Vital importance of food pro duction has led me to put these chapters into book form for children older grown. The fact that flowers occupy some of the space may help to cheer us as we work at the big task of increasing the world's food supply. The wonderful work the Boy Scouts of America are doing to help increase this supply, has, more than any other cause, led me to rewrite these chap ters. Under the' wonderful leadership of my life partner, the Chief Grub Scout, I am sure they will achieve yet greater results.

Download or read book A Child s Garden of Verses Classic Reprint written by Robert Louis Stevenson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Child's Garden of Verses Small wonder is it that this man - who to the last of his days retained that enthusiasm which made him as a child throw himself into his games in a very passion of play - could write for children in the spirit of a child. In him the power to reveal his personality in his writings was combined with that of recalling at any time sensations once experienced. And thus in the simple verses of his Garden we have a true picture of the frail, brown-eyed little boy whose restless nights faithful Cummie soothed; so many of whose days were spent in the Land of Counterpane, the pleasant aspect of which he was yet able to see; whose happiest hours were passed in the dear, delightful garden at Colinton - that enchanted ground where his vivid imagination ran riot. While the quaint conceits and the deep philosophy of some of these poems of childhood are beyond the power of children to appreciate, the thoughts in the lines are children's thoughts and the point of View that of a child, and few are the childish readers who will not be captivated by their charm. And since an acquaintance with this man's work means an abiding joy in him that grows with familiarity, the teacher or parent who leads a child to form the acquaintance renders a service that is indeed worth while.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Children's Gardens for School and Home: A Manual of Cooperative Gardening Cooperative gardening is one of the newer movements for the education of the young and for the elevation of neglected and unfortunate classes; yet it has already become an important factor in the school and home life of many places under the auspices of school authorities, civic leagues, improvement associations, women's clubs, settlement houses, libraries and other bodies. This movement has two motives - the trans forming of barren, dreary, ill-kept school grounds and other uncared-for public places into bowers of beauty and good taste, and develop ing in children love of Nature, appreciation of her beauties and ability to enhance for their own enjoyment and the public good the aesthetic effect of their immediate surroundings.
