Excerpt from The Mary Frances Garden Book: Or Adventures Among the Garden People
Dear Boys and Girls:
Mary Frances and Billy have been growing up, and with their growing, they have learned to love the great out-of-doors.
No, they haven't outgrown fairy folk, at least Mary Frances hasn't, for that is a part of this story - how Feather Flop, the rooster, and Jack-in-the-Pulpit and Bouncing Bet, the fairies of the wood, helped teach her to garden.
But in their study and work, Mary Frances and Billy learned more than that - they learned to appreciate what a wonderful amount of energy is expended by Mother Nature in growing one little plant from a seed; how careful she is that nothing be wasted; and what pleasure there is in tilling the soil, and helping things grow!
