Robert Louis Stevenson's "Happy Thought" betokens all the joy and wonder of A Child's Garden of Verses. The poetic musings of this well-loved classic recapture childhood mysteries that range from the everyday rituals of home ("The Land of Nod," "Escape at Bedtime," and "My Bed Is a Boat") to the curiosities of a wider world ("Foreign Lands," "Pirate Story," and "Where Go the Boats?").

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 73
It is a good thing that mothers understand what no one else seems to when you are the youngest child in the family, and are finally four years old. Bonnie is more than ready to join her older sisters and brother in the many adventures she sees come their way, whether it be sliding along the ice, searching for arrowheads, or going on that journey of all journeys-across the swinging bridge to school.

The stories are about Christopher Robin and these good companions having wonderful times getting in and out of trouble. It is all very exciting and, really, quite thrilling no matter how young or old you may be. It is painful to try and imagine what the world would be like without them.

Rediscover the Christmas story. These tales look at the real Christmas story by those who saw it. Four short stories look at the story of the birth of baby Jesus as seen by the donkey in the stable, the shepherds on a hillside, the star gazing down on the little town of Bethlehem, and the baby's mother, Mary. Based loosely on the Bible story about the arrival of the baby Jesus, these tales take a refreshing look at the nativity story at the heart of Christmas.

No one would accuse 11-year-old Caddie Woodlawn of being dainty and ladylike. In spite of her mother’s best efforts, Caddie is as wild as the wind, playing freely and rambunctiously with her two brothers in the Wisconsin backwoods. There are rafts to build and trees to climb and pranks to play. Caddie especially likes to watch her friend Indian John build birchbark canoes at the river. Every day seems wide with possibility - as wide as the frontier. But living on the edge of civilization has its risks, too....

Of especially naughty children, it is sometimes said: “They must have been raised by wolves.” The Incorrigible children actually were. Discovered in the forests of Ashton Place, the Incorrigibles are no ordinary children: Alexander keeps his siblings in line with gentle nips; Cassiopeia has a bark that is (usually) worse than her bite; and Beowulf is alarmingly adept at chasing squirrels.

As my BFF says, "I could listen to Julie Andrews read a phone book". Nice selection of poems covering the entire year. This and her other book of poems puts me to sleep at night... NOT because the book is boring but because of her soothing voice.

Julie and her daughter do a good job
What made the experience of listening to Julie Andrews' Treasury for All Seasons the most enjoyable?
That it was fun, but more geared to kids, I still enjoyed it, they read some good poetry, and stuff. It just missed being a 5 star thing by a little but it just lack that little spark for me the adult listener. (Why I was listening to kids was the problem but it said it had a lot of poetry I liked to hear and also like Andrews.)
Who was your favorite character and why?
It was a few people reading poems, it had to find a favorite character, My favorite poem was by Langston Hughes.
Have you listened to any of Julie Andrews and Emma Walton Hamilton ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have a Julie Andrews book Home waiting for me to listen too, I enjoyed the book completely and it was on sale so I bought it but have not had time to listen yet.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I smiled a bit at some of the poems, I really enjoyed listening to them.
Any additional comments?
For a mostly kids book, its not too bad for adults too.

Simply Delicious!!
Would you listen to Julie Andrews' Treasury for All Seasons again? Why?
I could listen to this over and over. Julie Andrews' Treasury for all Seasons is just that...a treasure! No matter what the occasion, Julie and Emma have compiled a delicious collection of diverse selections that are sure to touch the heart.
Who was your favorite character and why?
This collection includes many old favorites as well as some I've never heard, and a few wonderful poems by Julie and Emma as well.
What does Julie Andrews and Emma Walton Hamilton bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Julie and Emma's expressive readings bring each poem and song lyric to jubilant life! What could be better than having that famous voice read to you?!
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Delicious Prose
Any additional comments?
I'm saving this, as well as the Julie Andrews' Collection of Poems, Songs and Lullabies, to read to my future grandchildren, and of course, enjoy them myself until then!

A disappointment😐😔
Some of the poems bothered me. There was one I skipped because it grossed me out when I was eating! I didn't care to hear about gross rotting teeth and gas so bad it cleared a room (I was eating but would I want to hear that any other time? No) I can't say how the end of that one was because I stopped listening. I like Julie Andrews but wish I had not wasted my money on this!
