About This Book

A collection of short, illustrated verses that portray infants and toddlers in familiar domestic scenes—play, naps, mealtimes, mischief, outings, and simple fantasies. Each poem uses rhythmic, child-friendly language to celebrate sensory details, family relationships, and small adventures, often observing twins, siblings, neighborhood babies, and everyday mishaps like jam on the face or rainy-day confinement. The volume reads like a series of affectionate snapshots aimed at entertaining and soothing young readers and caregivers.

Dream-land.

Where has my dear little baby gone?
Gone off to sleepy-land all alone.
What will my dear little baby do?
Play with the dreams, and laugh at them too.
Over in sleepy-land, over and under,
Dreams chase each other away,
Over in dream-land, sleepy eyes wonder,
To see all the dreams at play.
Sleepy-land, dream-land,
Dream-land, sleepy-land,
Dear little baby has gone.
