Description
Presented here in a beautiful, illustrated hardcover edition, this collection of poems by the author of Treasure Island is one of the most influential works of nineteenth-century children's literature.
First published in 1885, A Child's Garden of Verses has never ceased to be an essential title of children's literature. Stevenson's verses capture the feelings of children--of being small, the bliss of going up in a swing, discovering one's shadow, and happiness, sorrow and, dreaming. Robinson's pictures, which originally appeared in the 1896 first illustrated edition, beautifully illuminate Stevenson's poems. Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, and European-style half-round spines.
