Love-Songs of Childhood
by Eugene Field (1850-1895)
This book contains verse for young and old. It is full of fantastic stories, breathtaking images, and brilliant rhymes. Including classics from “The Duel” to “The Delectable Ballad of Walter Lot,” the author, a devout Christian, keeps his religious overtones to a minimum. When listening, please keep in mind that the text was originally written in the 1800s. — Summary by Squid Varilekova
