The Golden Store – An illustrated selection of poetry

The Golden Store is for first-time readers of Wordsworth’s poetry. Follow him as a boy through the seasons of the year in his Lake District home. His poetry captures the excitement of ice-skating in winter, summer days on the lakes or roaming the mountains – the frightening moments and tragedies. Here too is his passion for nature, his amazement as big city life and his experiences as he treks around Europe. Meet the people in Wordsworth’s world with their mysteries and dark stories. Meet also his sister Dorothy whose observations of people and nature are so vividly drawn in the journal she kept of their lives together. Here is Wordsworth’s poetry in all its rich variety for you to enjoy.
