About this Item

This volume contains both "My Own Book of Three Flowers Which Blossom in April" and "My Own Book of Three Flowers Which Blossom in May", bound together meeting in the middle, 30 pp. each. ~~The April flowers are Hepatica, Spring-Beauty, and Adder's Tongue. The May flowers are Squirrel Corn, Jack-in-the-Pulpit, and Trillium. For each plant a series of questions are asked, the answers to which the pupil must find in the specimen itself. There are blank pages for additional notes, and leaves of drawing paper for sketches. Conventional decorative designs made from each plant are given, and the pupil is expected to originate others. ~~Comstock (1854-1930) was an author, illustrator, and educator of natural studies. She was the first female professor of Cornell. This volume contains partial answers inscribed by the unknown first owner as well as numerous pencil drawings of the flowers. Rare and beautiful gem.~~Darkening to May cover; some scuffs and spots to April cover. Pages excellent.
