This book contains a number of delightful children's poems written
by Aileen Cleveland Higgins accompanied by the beautifully delicate
illustrations of Jessie Willcox Smith. Many of the earliest
children's books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and
before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Pook
Press are working to republish these classic works in affordable,
high quality, colour editions, using the original text and artwork
so these works can delight another generation of children. About
the Illustrator: Jessie Willcox Smith (1863-1935) was one of
America's leading illustrators and epitomised the home life of the
late-Victorian period. Early on in her career, she was compared to
Kate Greenaway and her charming drawings depict a world of happy
families and heartfelt emotion although she herself never married
or had children. She illustrated over 200 covers of Good
Housekeeping as well as a multitude of children's books.
