nephews and nieces. He went about with them in the fields and woods,
and, without forcing it on them in any way, so ordered the conversation

The book is well made, a handy size, with a colored frontispiece showing
the farmhouse; it is illustrated throughout in a practical way which
cannot fail to interest children.
