A Child's Garden of Verses - Robert Louis Stevenson

one sentence summary:
A collection of poetry extolling the wonder of being a child.

review:
This is a wonderful read, very Victorian in it's language which adds to the appeal of the child like joy the poems evoke. I recommend reading it out loud to any and every small child in your life. On the internet there seems to be much complaint about the language used being un-relatable to today's children, well if that is the case maybe we need to make smarter children.

7/10
