About this book
Forty-seven poems for children make up this book by Walter de la Mare, first issued in 1902 under the name Walter Ramal. This edition is the 1976 Garland facsimile, with a preface by the poet Anthony Hecht. Hecht sets the poems beside the nonsense verse of Lear and Carroll and says de la Mare writes without cuteness or condescension, with an honest candor like that of ballads and fairy tales.
