About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Trees Every Child Should Know by Julia Ellen Rogers. Read in English by MaryAnn Spiegel. The best time to being to study the trees is to-day! The place to begin is right where you are, provided there is a tree near enough, for a lesson about trees will be very dull unless there is a tree to look at, to ask questions of, and to get answers from. (Julia Rogers)
