Foreign Lands by Robert Louis Stevenson, printed by Anna K. Ganske

In this poem by Robert Louis Stevenson, a child climbs up a cherry tree in their garden to see "foreign lands", such as the neighbors garden, and a nearby river. In a little miniseries for spring, we will be doing much the same, and exploring four neighboring books by two poets from the UK.

Our first poet is Robert Louis Stevenson, who is best known for adventure stories like Treasure Island, and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, as well as his poetry for children.

Today's item is quite spring like in color, with floral cloth covered boards protecting an accordion fold book, tied with a blue ribbon.
