Descriptive note in Annual, 1906.
“The incompleteness of the book, however inevitable, is a more serious drawback than its unscientific plan, and a drawback that must affect all kinds of readers. However, she has, on the whole, made a good selection, and her descriptions are as clear as they can be without the use of botanical terms.”

Hensley, Mrs. Sophie M. Heart of a woman. **$1.50. Putnam.
7–3092.
“A book of verses of unobtrusive quality written by Mrs. Hensley, who adds to her poetic gifts the largeheartedness of a woman interested in philanthropic reforms.... The verses are carefully grouped under the different heads, Love lyrics, A woman’s love-letters, Nature poems, Narrative poems, Child poems and songs, Sonnets, and Rondeaus.”—N. Y. Times.
“Though the verses are not tinged with any oppressive ethos, we feel throughout a grace and simplicity of goodness. The meter and rhythm are smooth, the meaning is not too deep-hidden, and the moods vary from grave to gay.”
