Rose buds

A lively collection of short verses, this book captures the carefree spirit of childhood in a bygone era. Its pages are stitched together with simple rhyme and gentle rhythm, inviting young listeners to linger over each turn. The poems celebrate everyday moments—from the thrill of a seaside adventure to the quiet comfort of bedtime rituals.

Among the pieces, a mischievous girl named Josephine Maud learns a soft lesson after a burst of temper, while Tommy Warner’s playful scolding offers a chuckle. A sailor’s ‘Heigh ho!’ song paints a bright picture of adventure, and Lillie Lansing’s dancing steps bring movement to the ear. The assortment of rhymes, animal antics, and seasonal snapshots creates a warm, nostalgic garden where each tiny story buds like a rose, ready to be heard and cherished.
