Excerpt from The Child's Book of Nature, Vol. 1 of 3: For the Use of Familier and Schools

Having presented in Part First such facts or phenomena of Vegetable Physiology as would be interesting to a child, I pro cecd in this Part to do the same with Animal Physiology.

The teacher and parent will observe, that in doing this I bring out quite prominently the analogies that exist between the ani mal and the vegetable world in the operations of life. Such anal ogies are always interesting to the child as well as to the adult, and the consideration of them adds much to the enjoyment of the observer of nature, for it opens to him the simple plans and principles upon which the Creator works out the almost endlessly varied results that life, both animal and vegetable, presents to Our view.
