The stories mother nature told her Children is a novel written by Jane Andrews. Some of Mother Nature's most priceless secrets are revealed. Children will enjoy hearing about amber, the dragonfly and its fascinating history, water lilies, how Indian corn is grown, the strange antics of the Frost Giants, coral, starfish, coal mines, and many other fascinating topics. You might believe that Mother Nature has so many children that she is helpless, similar to the fabled "old woman who lived in the shoe." But once you get to know her and see how powerful and active she is, and how she can actually be in fifty places at once, tending to a sick tree or a newborn flower, while also building underground palaces, directing the steps of small travelers setting out on long journeys, and sweeping, dusting, and organizing her great house, the earth, you will understand her better. She will continue to work patiently while telling us the most endearing and amazing tales from her youth or about the treasures that are kept in her palace's most remote and hidden closets. These are the same tales that you all enjoy listening to your mother tell when you all gather around her at dusk.

Autorenporträt
Jane Andrews was an American writer and educator who lived from December 1, 1833, until July 15, 1887. She was able to establish a small elementary school in her home in 1860, where she taught J. Lewis Howe, Alice Stone Blackwell, and Ethel Parton. Her teaching, which was influenced by Mann's theories, was innovative for its time since it placed a strong emphasis on student experimentation, observation, and participation in the learning process as well as societal responsibility. Her health eventually forced her to close the school in 1885 after 25 years. A number of well-known children's novels were born from her lessons. Seven Little Sisters Who Live on the Round Ball That Floats in the Air (1861), her debut book, is a compilation of tales about seven young sisters who reside in various strange locations. The book was so well-liked that it was translated into Chinese, German, and Japanese and sold close to 500,000 copies over the following century. A sequel, Each and All: Seven Little Sisters Prove Their Sisterhood (1877), and a novel comparable to it, Ten Boys Who Lived on the Road From Long Ago to Now, about boys living in various historical eras, were published after it (1886).
