A Child’s Garden of Verses<\/strong><\/h3>\n

by Robert Louis Stevenson<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Description:  <\/span>Robert Louis Stevenson makes an ideal companion for children, and in this joyous collection of poems (accompanied here by Jesse Willcox Smith\u2019s richly-textured illustrations) he participates in the excursions of childhood, with enormous zest. From bed in the summertime, to fires in the fall, from homemade boats to high hay-carts, he sees smells and hears all. One of the little people (but with a great mustache), Stevenson\u2019s marvelous. Read him. You won\u2019t regret the choice.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
