The Poems of a Child is a charming collection of poetry written by the young American poet Edith Thomas, who began writing poetry at the age of six. The book was first published in 1899 and includes over thirty poems that capture the innocence and wonder of childhood. The collection is introduced by British writer and critic Richard Le Gallienne, who praises Thomas's precocious talents and youthful energy. A delightful read for anyone interested in early twentieth-century American poetry.
