This wonderful work by WW Denslow is a tongue in cheek story about Humpty's son. Humpty-Dumpty was a smooth, round little chap, with a winning smile and a great golden heart in his broad breast.Only one thing troubled Humpty, and that was that he might fall and crack his thin, white skin. He wished to be hard. All the way through...For he felt his heart wobble when he walked or ran about. And that was scary.So off he went to the Black Hen for advice.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 both to bring the funny story and quirky ways of Humpty's Son to life for a more modern audience. Learn more about Humpty's Son and his travels.

The father of the "American Picture Book," W. W. Denslow is best remembered for the distinctive illustrations he created for the original Wonderful Wizard of Oz. This unique compilation features 9 of the best stories from his 18-volume series of picture books from 1903 to 1904, which featured novel retellings of favorite childhood tales. High-quality color reproductions of the artist's drawings accompany stories of Humpty Dumpty, Jack and the Beanstalk, Little Red Riding Hood, and other beloved characters. Denslow rewrote several of these familiar stories, toning down harsher aspects of the original material to provide wholesome entertainment redolent of his era's mood and sensibilities. This new edition includes an Introduction by Oz historian Michael Patrick Hearn.
