"The title of the book is a play upon his name: Park-in-Sun's Earthly Paradise, and the quaintness, freshness, and originality of the title is characteristic of the whole book. Parkinson has the power of inspiring his readers with a love of flowers and a feeling for their beauty, and still, after a lapse of centuries, no gardener could fail to be refreshed and stimulated in his art by a perusal of the Earthly Paradise. "The feeling that this book might inspire in children is very prettily shown in Mary's Meadow by Juliana Horatia Ewing."-The Hon. Alicia Amherst. 163 PARKINSON.
