Roads to Childhood Views and Reviews of Children's Books (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Roads to Childhood Views and Reviews of Children's BooksAnd the little roads of Cloonagh go rambling through my heart. Eva Gore-Booth.Cornish road has fallen in fallen in fallen in;Cornish road has fallen in;Where has it gone to?I sang the words under my breath to the tune of London Bridge. A new road built to shorten the distance from one Maine village to another had sunk overnight - had vanished from the face of the earth. People drove from far and near to see the place where the road had been. Old inhabitants proclaimed once more the folly of building new roads to save time. It was far better they said to take time to climb over a mountain and feel safe than to risk a road built over a swamp.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
