Description:
This lovely edition of Stevenson's children's poetry is illustrated by renowned artist and illustrator, Jessie Wilcox Smith. AND, amazingly, there is a two-page handwritten dedication on the FFEP's from Stevenson's friend, Augustus St. Gaudens. Gaudens was a world-renowned sculptor and portrait maker that produced a bronze medal of Stevenson when he came to the United States befriending him in the process. The dedication is posthumous to Stevenson which suggests that this book belonged to Gaudens who revered the poet and writer. Gaudens died two years after the publication of this book.
Boards are soiled and mildy scuffed along edges and on front cover pastedown. Spine ends are frayed and corners bumped. The Wilcox illustrations are of superior quality and literally pull the reader into the image!
