description: Among the variety of verses in this collection, many of which are here translated for the first time, are delicate pieces originally written for an innovative Bengali textbook; delightful nonsense poetry and presentations of a child's desires and fantasies; and narrative and didactic poems assimple as they are sober. The book also contains a wealth of illustrations by Rabindranath himself, his circle and the members of the Santiniketan community.
