Verses of the seasons, of “little fowls of the air,” and of “the
country road”; ballads of sailormen and of battle; songs of the
hearthrug, and of the joy of being alive and a child, selected
by Mr. Lucas and illustrated in black and white and with colored
plates by Mr. F. D. Bedford. The wording of the title is an
allusion to the very successful “Book of Verse for Children” issued
ten years ago. _The Athenæum_ describes Mr. Lucas as “the ideal
editor for such a book as this.”
