Books with title Farm Morning

The keynote of joyousness is struck by the title "Morning Face," since the words represent the inspired idea of R. L. Stevenson in his verse, "If I have shown no morning face." About this idea Gene Stratton-Porter, author of "Laddie," "Freckles," etc., has made this book for children. Although many tens of thousands of children have read and loved "Freckles" and her other books, this is the first time she has made a book specially for the youngsters. In prose and verse she gives her word-pictures of the buds, the flowers, and the life of the out-of-doors.

As the moon goes down each morning the big yellow sun greets the day. This book takes you through a day on the farm, as the sun greets the different animals as well as the farmer and his wife. At the close of the day the sun says good night and pulls up the cover of darkness and the moon reappears. The book is written in rhyme, that children love. The author taught many young children to read during her thirty year teaching career. She also started a preschool and transformed it into a large daycare at a church in her community. Children are her love, the life work God gave her.
