Jack Frost

They are glad now to glean the seeds of the withering broad vegetation, among whose leafy recesses they were cradled.

Let us hope Jack Frost may deal gently, and that the evil eye of the skulking gunner may not glance down sights at them.

Many familiar birds we miss altogether.

The rails and moorhens have sought the sheltered ditches, and the great crested grebes have gone south for the winter, for what good were it to stay when the little fry have sought the deepest recesses of the broad, and the ice-bound surface forbids them diving in search of them.

I'm awake, and I want to get dressed, and try to see the fairies painting the trees.

his mother came in carrying some warm clothes on her arm and said it is a cold morning bertie jack frost has come now and you must be dressed in a thick dress to keep him from pinching you did jack frost paint the leaves with those pretty colors i thought the fairies did it said bertie earnestly his mother smiled and answered pleasantly i think jack frost had something to do with the bright leaves dearie but we might suppose that he sent many active little fairies abroad in the night as the leaves have changed so suddenly from green to crimson yellow and brown can't you tell me a story about those fairies mamma said bertie who was always ready to hear fairy stories not now dear it is late and your breakfast is waiting for you but if you are a very good boy until my morning duties are done AND IF YOU THEN SAY A NICE LONG LESSON TO ME, I WILL TRY TO THINK OF A STORY TO TELL YOU, SAID THE LADY.

BIRDIE PROMISED TO BE GOOD, AND AS HE HAD NEVER BROKEN HIS PROMISES SINCE THE DAY OF HIS TUMBLE INTO THE WATER, HE KEPT IT FAITHFULLY NOW, AND AFTER HIS LESSONS WERE OVER, HIS MOTHER REWARDED HIM BY TELLING HIM THE STORY OF THE FROST FARIES.

king frost or jack frost as he is sometimes called lives in a cold country far to the north but every year he takes a journey over the world in a car of golden clouds drawn by a strong and rapid steed called north wind wherever he goes he does many wonderful things he builds bridges over every stream clear as glass in appearance but often strong as iron he puts the flowers and plants to sleep by one touch of his hand and they all bow down and sink into the warm earth until spring returns Then, lest we should grieve for the flowers, he places at our windows lovely wreaths and sprays of his white northern flowers, or delicate little forests of fairy pine trees, pure white and very beautiful.

but his most wonderful work is the painting of the trees which look after his task is done as if they were covered with the brightest layers of gold and rubies and are beautiful enough to comfort us for the flight of summer i will tell you how king frost first thought of this kind work for it is a strange story you must know that this king like all other kings has great treasures of gold and precious stones in his palace but being a good-hearted old fellow he does not keep his riches locked up all the time but tries to do good and make others happy with them He has two neighbors who live still farther north.

There are clothes and toys thrown all over the floor.

The grumpy man who lives here, Jack Frost, must have made a huge mess.

But wait, let's use our looking eyes.

Can you spot the baby animal hiding up there? Look way, way up high on the shiny, pointy chandelier hanging from the ceiling.

Two, they stuff it with pieces of thick warm blankets.

And three, they make a perfectly snuggly little bed just for Kiki.

You know, even grumpy Jack Frost, who is actually hiding under the big messy bed, decides to be a little bit helpful.

He shares a soft blue teddy bear that has a cute little patch on its tummy.

Spring was making everybody happy on the green meadows and in the green forest and around the smiling pool.

With her gentle fingers she wakened one by one all the little sleepers who had spent the long winter dreaming of warm summer days and not knowing anything at all of the rough, blustering Brother Northwind or Jack Frost.

As they wakened, many began to sing for joy, but the clearest, loudest singers of all lived in the smiling pool.

it was a long time before peter rabbit and johnny chuck knew where they lived every night just before going to bed johnny chuck would sit on his doorstep just to listen and as he listened somehow he felt better and happier and he always had pleasant dreams after listening to the sweet singers of the smiling pool Even after he had curled himself up for the night deep down in his snug bedroom, he could hear those sweet voices, and whenever he waked up in the night he would hear them.

They are glad now to glean the seeds of the withering broad vegetation, among whose leafy recesses they were cradled.

Let us hope Jack Frost may deal gently, and that the evil eye of the skulking gunner may not glance down sights at them.

Many familiar birds we miss altogether.

The rails and moorhens have sought the sheltered ditches, and the great crested grebes have gone south for the winter, for what good were it to stay when the little fry have sought the deepest recesses of the broad, and the ice-bound surface forbids them diving in search of them? The coots, held back until well-nigh starved, hoping against hope for a break in the long-continued frost, they too have departed, but are content to pick up a scanty living in the salt waters of the tidal estuary, persecuted, alas, at every turn by the merciless gun of the wildfowler.
