(LARGE PRINT EDITION) 1887. From the author of Little Women, these stories were written for my own amusement during a period of enforced seclusion. The flowers which were my solace and pleasure suggested titles for the tales and gave an interest to the work. If my girls find a little beauty or sunshine in these common blossoms, their old friend will not have made her Garland in vain. Contents: May Flowers; An Ivy Spray and Ladies' Slippers; Pansies; Water-Lilies; Poppies and Wheat; Little Button-Rose; and Mountain-Laurel and Maidenhair.
