The collection shows how pure and creative young children can be while capturing a caring and dreamy feeling, which makes it fun for kids and their parents to read. The poems create a cozy nursery filled with kids like Rosy Alice, Sturdy Hal, and shy Julia. Early on, the author talks about babies and being a family, wondering what a baby's life will be like and remembering a mother singing. The poems mix being a kid with using your imagination, inviting the reader to a sweet and fun world.
