Design this card$13.00$18.00
E. H. Shepard's toy soldiers, one standing tall with drumsticks raised and one toppled into a plate of dinner, sit beside A. A. Milne's wish for a soldier in a busby to come and play. The verse comes from Milne's 1924 book of poems for children, drawn in Shepard's lively pen line. For a child who loves to play, or anyone who grew up on Milne.
