Excerpt from The First Book of Plants Plants grow almost everywhere in the world around us in all sizes and shapes. Some are so small that they can be seen only with a microscope. Others, like the redwood trees of Cali lornia, tower high in the sky. Plants grow not only in well watered soil, but in oceans, rivers, lakes and swamps, in deserts, on rocks, far above the ground on branches of trees, on old pieces of wood, even on such unlikely things as crusts of bread, old shoes, or on top of arctic snow. Some strange plants eat insects, and others steal food from their neighbors. Plants and animals are the living, growing things of the earth. Most animals move around, and many of them have sound apparatuses, for making noises. Most plants spend their whole lives silently in one place. Because they live so quietly, we sometimes forget that during their growing seasons they work hard all day long. For plants are just as alive as animals, and they have the same problems: finding and keeping a place to live, getting food, fighting animal enemies and plant rivals.

Excerpt from Plant Relations: A First Book of Botany 1. General relations - Plants form the natural covering of the earth's surface. So generally is this true that a land surface without plants seems remarkable. Not only do plants cover the land, but they abound in waters as well, both fresh and salt waters. They are wonderfully varied in size, ranging from huge trees to forms so minute that the microscope must be used to discover them. They are also exceedingly variable in form, as may be seen by comparing trees, lilies, ferns, mosses, mushrooms, lichens, and the green thready growths (algae) found in water.

First Studies of Plant Life is written with a truly heart-warming purpose. Written by a distinguished academic but pitched at a level which is designed to allow a teacher to captivate a child in the earliest years of school. Atkinson takes the view that reasoning and 'why?' questions are suitable and appropriate for even the tiniest children and should not be held in reserve for a later date. It centres on an understanding of the 'life history' of a plant rather than tedious and traditional encouragements to rote learn and exclude context. George Francis Atkinson tells us in a startling modern way that a child does not best learn about a flower by uprooting it, dissecting and classifying it. Rather they should plant a seed, find out how it germinates, watch it grow, learn about its food, see how it breathes, reproduces and ultimately dies back. For as the author states 'When the child has once become acquainted with the conditions and necessities of plant life, how different will the world seem to him.' The book begins and progresses in an intuitive way. It begins with the particular characteristics of seeds and their peculiarities and progresses all the way on to the root systems, the changing colours of the leaves on trees and the bright momentary flowers and bids by plants for pollination and reproduction. Small engaging experiments suitable for independent learners, homeschooling or teachers in a classroom are outlined and encouraged, further tying the book to an inclusive ethos of hands on learning. A child could hardly fail to fall in love with botany when taught from this book but an adult has scarcely more opportunity to avoid being enthralled.

Excerpt from First Book of Nature The order in which the topics have been treated, is the one that appeared most natural, and easiest to follow - animals, plants, and minerals of earth, and the most conspicuous objects of the heavens. No detailed classification has been attempted; nor have technical definitions or terms been employed; but it is hoped that the plan here adopted, will serve the reader as an introduction to a more thorough and systematic study of natural science, if to pursue such should be his desire.

Excerpt from The Flowering Plant: As Illustrating the First Principles of Botany The present work has been written with the intention of illustrating the First Principles Of Botany by means of common Flowering Plants. NO previous knowledge is assumed, and the style is made as simple as possible, the technical terms necessary being carefully explained as they occur. The paramount importance Of Practical Work is insisted on throughout, and, wherever possible, easily Obtained Objects are described instead of rare ones, so that the student can readily verify most Of the facts mentioned. A short Practical Appendix is also added. No attempt has been made to write up (or down to any syllabus, but it is believed that the book will meet the requirements of most Elementary Examinations in Botany. A selection Of South Kensington and London Questions has been appended. My best thanks are due to Professor J. Von Sachs for permission to use several figures; and also to my friend and former colleague, Mr. John Brill, m.a., who has given me much kind help during the progress of the work. Any corrections or suggestions for improvement will be gladly received. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The First Book of Trees America is a land of trees. They grow almost everywhere in our country. Most of us see them so often that we some times forget how important they are. Thousands and thousands of things come from trees. Right this minute you may be sitting in a chair made partly of wood from a tree. You may live in a wooden house. Perhaps you are wearing a rayon blouse. That was made from wood treated in a special way. The paper in this book was made' from wood pulp, which comes from trees. You may have a camera and like to take pictures. The film you Use was made from wood. Perhaps you had an orange for breakfast this morn ing. That came from a tree. Apples, nuts, maple sugar, hickory baseball bats you can think of many things that we wouldn't have if there were no trees.

Excerpt from First Book of Botany: Being an Introduction to the Study of the Anatomy and Physiology of Plants, Suited for Beginners Speaking from some experie'nce in the teaching of the young, I can truly say that the little botanical lessons given to children in the course of summer rambles have been a source of great pleasure and enjoy ment alike to teacher and pupil. I would therefore strongly urge the propriety of making Botany a part of elementary teaching. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from First Book of Indian Botany This little book is, in substance, my Lessons in Elementary Botany adapted for use in India. But in preparing it, I have had in view the want, often felt, of some handy re'sume of Indian Botany, which might be serviceable not only to residents in India, but also to any one about to proceed thither, desirous of getting some preliminary idea of the Botany of that country. I might have entitled the book Illustrations of Indian Natural Orders of Plants 3 but as the same chapters, with necessary alterations, on the Elements of Structural and Physiological Botany are prefixed to the systematic part which I originally drew up for my previous work, the whole thing seems to me tolerably suited to serve as a First Book of Indian Botany.

Excerpt from The Book of Useful Plants The world of plants is a wonder world to chil dren. Thegrowing of a plant, from seed to seed, is a wonderful experience. The wheat that makes our bread can trace its family line back to the time when men lived in caves and were wild as the beasts with whom they contended without weapons. Grains and other plants that have ministered for centuries to the comfort and happi ness of the race have long, interesting histories. A wonderful future lies before each one.

Excerpt from Experiments With Plants: A First Schoolbook of Science Laboratory work alone is not sufficient, and if class lessons alternate with it there is opportunity for discussing results, and for answering either orally or in writing the questions put down after most of the experiments and also in the Appendix.
