Anna Bartlett Warner
Anna Bartlett Warner (1827–1915) was an American author best known for writing the hymn "Jesus Loves Me," which has become a classic in Christian children's literature. She was the younger sister of Susan Warner, a popular novelist, and together they wrote numerous books, often collaborating on religious and children's literature. Warner lived most of her life on Constitution Island, near West Point, where she and her sister were deeply involved in religious instruction for the cadets at the United States Military Academy.

Dr. Maryland and his daughter were driving homeward after some business which had taken them to the village. 'She will if she knows what is good for her,' the doctor answered decidedly. 'But she has been away from Chickaree now nearly a year.' 'I don't...

CHAPTER I. So came the holiday week, wherein was to be done so much less than usual—and so much more. Mr. Linden's work, indeed, was like to double on all hands; for he was threatened with more tea-drinkings, dinners, suppers, and frolics, than the week would hold. How should he manage to give everybody a piece of him, and likewise present himself entire to the assembled boys when ever they...

CHAPTER I. The street was broad, with sidewalks, and wide grass-grown borders, and a spacious track of wheels and horses' feet in the centre. Great elms, which the early settlers planted, waved their pendant branches over the peaceful highway, and gave shelter and nest-room to numerous orioles, killdeer, and robins; putting off their yellow leaves in the autumn, and bearing their winter weight of...
