Berta and Elmer Hader were prolific children's book writer's illustrators. Their philosophy was: "we write for children, not to preach, nor moralize, but to suggest that the world about them is a beautiful and pleasant place to live in, if they but take time out, to look. And perhaps in doing so, our young readers will develop an interest to save what is good of their world for others to enjoy." Interior crisp and clean. Covers rubbed at edges. Green illustrated cloth covered boards. Very good. Item #3869
