Morning Face
Paperback
(Independently published May 6, 2019)
"MORNING FACE," a book of nature rhymes and cunningly caught posture of birds and animals in photographs, is nature book by Gene Stratton-Porter. Her pictures are a triumph of patience in catching the rare moments of wild creatures, and the rhymes and stories were written for the real "Morning Face," a little girl who lived for a time in her home, "Limberlost," in Indiana. The jingles are for reading aloud, runes, incantations of childhood suitable for the magic added to them by the human voice. The birds and beasts are young ones, the kind children love best. The book is bound, as you can see, in blue and gold and contains portraits of the author and of the little girl who inspired the rhymes
