Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Little Fig-Tree Stories There is a garden on a hill slope between the snows of the Sierra Nevada and the warm, rich valleys of the coast. It is in that region of Northern California where the pine belt and the fruit belt interlace. Both pine and fruit trees grow in that mountain garden, and there, in the new moon Of February, six young Alm ond trees burst into ower. The Peach and Plum trees in the upper gar den felt a glow Of sympathy with their forward sisters of the south, but the matronly Cherry trees shook their heads at such an untimely show Of blossoms. They foresaw the trouble to come. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
