Frances Ridley Havergal's eldest sister Miriam was 19 when Frances was born, and Miriam first tutored her when she was two and a half; among other things, Miriam taught her young sister poetry. Many years later, Frances became the home teacher to Miriam's own four children. Miriam asked Frances to compile a book of her poems for her nieces and nephews, which Frances readily wanted to do, but so many other things to do and then her very unexpected early death left this book unwritten. Miriam posthumously selected these poems and published this book. After Miriam's 1887 compilation, a number of other poems for children written by F.R.H., by her father William Henry Havergal, and by a few others, are given at the end of this edition. These are so little known today, yet so encouraging and edifying.
