Land of Nod and Other Poems for Children

A Child's Garden of Verses, Robert Louis Stevenson's classic collection of poems for children, has been in print for more than one hundred years.  The poems have survived because they speak to a child's dreams, adventures, and everyday experiences with unmatched lyrical grace.  For this book, Michael Hague has selected thirty of the enduring favorites –poems like "My Shadow," "The Land of Counterpane," "Bed in Summer," and "The Cow"–and has illustrated them with a series of bright, bold lnew paintings which will draw children into Stevenson's magic world.
