Robert Louis Stevenson

Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-94) was born in Edinburgh, Scotland. He studied law but preferred writing and in 1881 was inspired by his stepson to write Treasure Island.

Other famous adventure stories followed including Kidnapped, as well as the famous collection of poems for children, A Child's Garden of Verses. Robert Louis Stevenson is buried on the island of Samoa.

Charles Robinson

Artist and engraver Charles Robinson (1870–1937) worked in the Arts and Crafts tradition and specialized in children's literature.

A pioneer of modern book design, he was among the first to integrate drawings with text. Dover publishes his interpretation of A Child's Garden of Verses.
