Overview

First published in 1907 and in print ever since, Hilaire Belloc's Cautionary Tales for Children
are a deliciously witty parody of the terribly serious moral tales for children which were
popular in Victorian times.

Terrifying and funny at the same time and with a true sense of the absurd, Belloc brings us
the renowned Jim, Who ran away from his nurse, and was eaten by a Lion and unfortunate
Rebecca who slammed Doors for Fun and Perished Miserably.

As well as these stories and many more, this edition includes equally a selection of mischievous poems from The Bad Child's Book of Beasts and More Beasts for Worse Children.
