Featured poems include Edward Lear's "There Was an Old Man with a Beard" Robert Louis Stevenson's "The Swing" and Gelett Burgess's "The Purple Cow." A graphically intriguing example of the turn in the 1960s to a more child-centered model of art education in the United States. Spiral-bound volume measuring 8.25 x 11 inches: 68.
