«A Child's Garden of Verses» is Robert Louis Stevenson's collection of children's poems, in hardback from Everyman's Library (160 pages, in English).
The poems recreate the world from a child's perspective: the thrill of swinging, the discovery of one's own shadow, outdoor games, imagination and dreams. Stevenson combines simplicity and lyricism to turn small everyday experiences into poetic material, in a work that remains a classic of children's poetry.
Illustrated edition by Charles Robinson, with images originally published in 1896. The work first appeared in 1885 and belongs to the Everyman's Library Children's Classics series.
It is aimed at children aged 6 to 7 who are beginning to read poetry in English.
Nineteenth-century Scottish novelist, poet and travel writer, author of Treasure Island and Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.
