A Child´s Garden of Verses has always been one of my favorite books, and over the years I´ve given dozens of copies of it as First Birthday presents to the new children in my life. This is the most beautiful edition I have ever seen of these beloved poems. The illustrations are wonderful! They´re taken from numerous editions over the years, and they cover a variety of styles and time periods.

If time is any judge, this garden of delights will stay a perennial favorite. (Ages 4 to adult)¤
