Description de l’éditeur
Cautionary tales are traditional folklore stories used to teach children of dangers. Hilaire Belloc's 'Cautionary Tales' have been warning children from danger for over a hundred years. This book also includes three more of Belloc's works, 'A Moral Alphabet,' 'A Bad Child's Book of Beasts' and 'More Beasts for Worse Children.'
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Edward Gorey discovered these darkly humorous verses by Hilaire Belloc (1870-1953) and created never-before-published drawings to accompany them in Cautionary Tales for Children. The pithy rhymes make examples out of "Jim, who ran away from his Nurse, and was eaten by a Lion," and "Matilda, who told lies, and was Burned to Death," among others.
