Description
When I am grown to man's estate. I shall be very proud and great. And tell the other girls and boys. Not to meddle with my toys. Thus reads the whimsical, "Looking Forward," of this delightful collection. From the sweetness of "Land of Nod," to the imaginative dreams of "Pirate Story" and "Travels," Robert Louis Stevenson's beloved poems celebrate childhood in all its simplicity and joy. Originally published in 1885, A Child's Garden of Verses has served as a wonderful introduction to poetry for each new generation.

        June 1, 1987
        This compendium of information "for, by and about young people'' features chapters on sports celebrities, health, games, clubs, history, law and science.

      • premium: True
      • source: AudioFile Magazine
      • content: Against a background of soft orchestral music a star-studded cast reads more than sixty of Stevenson's beloved poems. The wide range of performers--from Ben Kingsley and Susan Sontag, to Michael York and Carl Reiner--helps relieve the tedium of listening to one short poem after another. Despite the fine readings, Stevenson's brand of dated innocence would be more effective in combination with other more modern kinds of poetry. Although the poems are listed on each side, with the reader for each, access is a problem. If counter reference numbers were provided, a parent and child could pick a favorite poem and listen together as they follow the text in a poetry anthology. J.C. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
