Buttercup Gold and Other Stories (1894)
Buttercup Gold and Other Stories use nature as metaphors for life, death, growth, and change in order to teach children about life in simple yet magical ways. The book was dedicated to "the dear kindergarten children, and particularly to my little friend, Alice Caro Wing."
