Synopsis

This book bridges the gap between nature study, art, and literature. The author examines nature lessons with a focus on art, literature, and life cycles. The book begins by exploring the twofold purpose of nature study as a means of cultivating the higher nature of the child while also developing intellectual powers. The author then goes on to discuss the importance of correlating nature study with literature and art. Nature study becomes a more impactful tool for shaping taste and ideals when informed by the perspectives of great thinkers, poets, and artists. The author's hope is that the ideas presented will both engage the reader and serve as a source of happiness.
