A Child's Garden of Verses By: Robert Louis Stevenson

A Child's Garden of Verses By: Robert Louis StevensonA Child's Garden of Verses    I Bed in Summer In winter I get up at night And dress by yellow candle-light. In summer quite the other way, I have to go to bed by day. I have to go to bed and see The birds still hopping on the tree, Or hear the grown-up people's feet Still going past me in the street. And does it not seem hard to you, When all the sky is clear and blue, And I should like so much to play, To have to go to bed by day?

Rapunzel's Revenge - A graphic novelRapunzel's Revenge - A graphic novel

Once upon a time, in a land you only think you know, lived a little girl and her mother . . . or the woman she thought was her mother.

Every day, when the little girl played in her pretty garden, she grew more curious about what lay on the other side of the garden wall . . .

And every year, things seemed weirder and weirder, until the day she finally climbed to the top of the wall ...

A hilarious twist on the classic story: Rapunzel and her amazing hair team up with Jack (of beanstalk fame) to gallop around the wild and western landscape, changing lives, righting wrongs, and bringing joy to every soul they encounter.

K. Mansfield - The garden party and SixpenceK. Mansfield - The garden party and Sixpence

Katherine Mansfield is probably the most famous writer from New Zealand. Her short stories are full of spiritual power and feminine life perception. All her literary works are remarkable by a special psychological analysis of the character. Modern critics consider Mansfield to be a very sincere author, who writes from her personal inner world instead of simply copying the general reality.
