Illustrated poems for children Elizabeth Gordon

A series of illustrated poems for children: Mother Earth's children; the frolics of the fruits and vegetables.

Poems by Elizabeth Gordon, with illustrations by M. T. Ross. Among all the children of Mother Nature, the fruits and vegetables are probably the most useful to us. In your Mother's garden you will always find many familiar friends; in the fields the graceful Grain children will nod and beckon to you; in the orchard the Fruit children will peep out at you from their leafy homes; along the roadside the gay little Berries will give you a friendly greeting, and in the forest you will find the little wild Grapes climbing trees and playing hide and seek with the Bird children.
