Description

Visit introduction author Norbert Krapf's website

A must-have for Riley enthusiasts everywhere, this classic book has been faithfully reproduced for Indiana's state bicentennial. Now with an introduction by lifelong Riley enthusiast and former Indiana Poet Laureate Norbert Krapf, this charming book contains 39 of James Whitcomb Riley's signature poems, including "Old Aunt Mary's," "Little Orphant Annie," and "The Raggedy Man." Graced by noted Brown County artist Will Vawter's illustrations of such poems as "The Nine Goblins," "The Circus Day Parade," and "Barefoot, Hungry, Lean Ornery Boys," this book offers a look at how childhood was lived a century ago. First produced in 1890, Riley Child-Rhymes with Hoosier Pictures recalls simpler times gone by.

He owns the bird-songs of the hills-
The laughter of the April rills;
And his are all the diamonds set
In Morning s dewy coronet,-
And his the Dusk s first minted stars
That twinkle through the pasture-bars ,
And litter all the skies at night
With glittering scraps of silver light;-
The rainbow s bar, from rim to rim ,
In beaten gold, belongs to him .
