A Child's Garden of Verses (Paperback, New edition)

From the sales point of view, this is a good buy. A lot for the money in a complete collection of the perennially popular poems, with numerous colored pictures and quantities of blacks and whites. Critically speaking, the art work is somewhat sentimental and dated, but the Mother Goose in the same vein outsells all others, and this is aimed at the same level of market. (Kirkus Reviews)

"The Land of Counterpane," "My Bed is a Boat," "The Land of Nod" and over 60 other poems children and their parents have cherished for over a century. Humorous and whimsical, grave and fearful, courageous and determined, these poems voice the many moods and currents of a child's imaginings. Reprinted in large, easy-to-read type, with 6 new illustrations by Thea Kliros that capture the magical spirit of this beloved classic of children's literature.
