Publisher's Synopsis
The White Heron is a short story written by Frances Laing White. The story follows a young girl named Sylvia, who lives in a small rural town with her grandmother. One day, Sylvia meets a young hunter who is searching for a rare white heron. The hunter offers Sylvia money if she can help him find the bird, but Sylvia is torn between her desire for the money and her love for the heron. As Sylvia spends more time in the woods searching for the heron, she begins to see the beauty in nature and realizes that the heron is worth more than any amount of money. The White Heron is a touching tale about the importance of nature and the value of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
