Reader's note

A delightful edition of the children's classic, The Water Babies by Charles Kingsley. Otherwise known as 'A Fairy Tale for a Land-baby'. This special Puffin paperback edition from 1984 has illustrations by Elisa Trimby and an introduction by Shirley Williams who notes: 'There should be room in our scientific, technological world for magic. There should be time amidst the automation for enchantment. The world of the water-babies, like the island of Atlantis, may not exist in any chart or on any map, but it can exist, just as real, in our imagination, unique to each of us, a private world.'
