A little about the story
Short, playful poems about childhood, written by a young father for his family and for anyone who has ever been or raised a child: wanting to be a gypsy with gold rings in your ears, a little frog who doesn't obey, summer explorers and bedtime dreams.
John Farrar later founded the publishing house Farrar, Straus and Giroux.
