【图书简介】 Scottish novelist， poet and essayist Robert Louis Stevenson dedicated A Child's Garden of Verses to Alison Cunningham， the nurse of his early childhood years in Edinburgh：a time whose essence he strove to recapture in the sixty-four poems of this long-treasured collection. Here， in "The Land of Counterpane" and "The Land of Nod，" and in such delightful lyrics as "My Bed Is a Boat，" "Autumn Fires" and "Windy Nights，" are rhymes and images children and their parents have cherished together since A Child's Garden of Verses was first published in 1885.Alternately humorous and whimsical， grave and fearful， coura-geous and determined， the poems touchingly voice the many moods and currents of a child's imaginings. All sixty-four poems are reprinted in this edition in large， easy-to-read type. New illustrations by Thea Kliros capture the magical spirit of this beloved classic of children's literature.
