"Johnny Crow's New Garden" continues L. Leslie Brooke's fantasy, started in "Johnny Crow's Garden". The illustrations, drawn by the author, bridge the gap between the day-to-day world of reality and the often-forgotten world of dream time. Each page illustrates one or two lines of poetry, each stanza ends with "In Johnny Crow's Garden." "Johnny Crow's New Garden" was only in print from 1935 to 1970.
