Humpty Dumpty's Son yearns to see the world but is worried risky travels will result in a smashed shell, like his father.
This wonderful work by W W Denslow is a tongue-in-cheek story about Humpty's Son and his adventures.
Denslow illustrated many children's books, probably
the best known being Frank Baum's 'The Wonderful Wizard of Oz'. He also published several children's books of his own, including Mother Goose in 1901. It is from this that the delightful story of Humpty’s son has been taken.
However, the grammar and illustrations do not suit
children of today. Both
are viewed as being boring in our fast paced lives.
So, I have taken the liberty of making changes to bring the funny story and quirky ways of Humpty’s Son to life for a more modern audience.
