Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. Where Did Your Garden Grow (1939) by Jannette May Lucas, with illustrations by Helene Carter, is an early Lippincott nonfiction picture-book that blends geography, botany, and gentle educational storytelling. Issued just before World War II, this first-era printing reflects the publisher's high production standards of the late 1930s: rich lithographed color, detailed floral plates, and decorative endpapers that showcase Carter's elegant botanical style. The book guides young readers through the origins of familiar garden flowers by exploring the regions of the world where each species naturally grows. Each chapter pairs short, accessible text with beautifully rendered maps-Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, South America-each filled with stylized blossoms placed across the continents like living markers. Carter's illustrations are the heart of the book. Her work combines scientific clarity with a soft, decorative sensibility, making the flowers recognizable yet artistically expressive. The endpapers, filled with luminous white and green blooms against a dark background, set the tone for the entire volume. The interior plates-Crimson Bell, Clarkia, Love-in-a-Mist, Boltonia, Calla Lily, Torch Lily, and many others-are printed with a richness that later reprints rarely matched. The book's structure, with paired text pages and map spreads, reflects a 1930s educational philosophy that emphasized global awareness and natural history through visual storytelling. Because this title was printed on pre-war paper and used heavily by children, intact 1939 copies are increasingly scarce. It remains a charming artifact of mid-century children's publishing, offering both aesthetic appeal and a glimpse into how young readers were introduced to the wider world of plants and geography. Hard cover edition. 64 pages. Dimensions: 8" by 10.25". Published by J. B. Lippincott Company, Philadelphia, Toronto, London, New York. 1st printing, 1939. B&W and color illustrations.

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. Texte francais, couverture souple. État d'usage: neuf. Trilogie de Léo Roman Par Hélène Lucas Peut-on vraiment mettre au monde un fils dans le but d'en sauver un autre, sans envisager qu'il apprendra un jour la vérité ? Une solution ultime, des circonstances tragiques, une mère incapable d'aimer son fils, mais surtout un enfant infiniment attachant doté d'une résilience hors du commun constituent l'univers dans lequel évolue le jeune Léo. Trois volets : son enfance, son adolescence et son passage à l'âge adulte avec les séquelles infligées par cette vie qu'il n'a pas choisie mais qu'il trimballe avec le reste de ses affaires dans sa valise. L'histoire de Léo, c'est un rendez-vous manqué entre une mère et son fils, mais c'est aussi une très grande histoire d'amour. Le Québec a applaudit la toute première ouvre romanesque d'Hélène Lucas en décernant le Prix des abonnés du réseau des bibliothèques de la ville de Québec au premier volet de cette bouleversante trilogie. Ses prochains ouvrages sont attendus avec impatience. Size: 8vo - over 7 in- 9 in Tall. Book.…
