Charles Kingsley's classic children's tale with glorious illustrations by W. Heath Robinson. After being chased from the home of an upper-class young girl called Ellie, chimney-sweep Tom falls asleep and tumbles into a river. There he is transformed into a 'water-baby' and his adventures truly begin. He enters a magical world full of strange and wonderful creatures, where he must prove his moral worth in order to earn what he truly desires. One of the most unusual children's books ever written, The Water-Babies reflects many social preoccupations of the Victorian era, such as education and the working conditions of children and the poor. With glorious black and white illustrations by W. Heath Robinson and an introduction by Christina Hardyment. | The Water-babies by Charles Kingsley, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
