It brings together poems that portray childhood through the eyes of a solitary, imaginative child: games, fantasies, fears and small everyday joys. Stevenson's poetry turns childhood into a symbolic garden that every reader can explore, reflecting a happy and recognisable childhood.
The work was originally published in 1885. This edition belongs to the Classics of Literature collection and includes illustrations by Joanna Isles.
Intended for those who want a classic of children's poetry in English, for shared reading with children or as a first introduction to Stevenson.
