Beschreibung

<p>First published in 1907 and in print ever since, Hilaire Belloc's <i>Cautionary Tales for Children</i> is a deliciously witty parody of the terribly serious moral tales for children, which were popular in Victorian times.<br><br>Terrifying and funny at the same time, and with a true sense of the absurd, Belloc brings us the renowned <i>Jim, Who ran away from his nurse, and was eaten by a Lion</i> and unfortunate <i>Rebecca, who slammed Doors for Fun and Perished Miserably.</i><br><br>As well as these stories and many more, this edition includes a selection of mischievous poems from <i>The Bad Child's Book of Beasts</i> and <i>More Beasts for Worse Children</i>. This volume includes the original illustrations by Basil Temple Blackwood, known as B.T.B.</p>
