Review: Flowers from Eugene Field

Flowers from Eugene Field Flowers from Eugene Field by Eugene Field
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

This mawkish and sentimental book has floral and landscape illustrations inside with poems by Field on various topics from babies to kittens and dolls, much hinting at religious and moralistic instruction for youths. Nothing rises to the level of a "Wynken, Blynken, & Nod", but there is a sequel to "Mary’s Lamb" by Sarah Josepha Hale, aka "Mary had a little lamb".
