Robert Louis Stevenson and Children's Play: The Contexts of "A Child's Garden of Verses."
Rosen, Michael
Children's Literature in Education, v26 n1 p53-72 Mar 1995
Examines a classic text, Robert Louis Stevenson's "A Child's Garden of Verses," within the context of several of Stevenson's own essays. Suggests that unlike many children's books, it was an experiment and one that Stevenson, for various reasons, including his premature death, was never able to adapt for future use. (RS)
