About this ebook
Froggy's Little Brother is a street-Arab tale, a genre popular with many mid to late nineteenth-century authors.
The story follows the trials of seven-year-old Froggy, who strives to care for his younger brother, Benny, after their parents' deaths. The boys face starvation in their Shoreditch attic room and Benny finally dies. Froggy is 'rescued' by a philanthropic doctor and taken to a boys' home. Froggy's Little Brother remains an important text for its depiction of East End of London poverty.
Brenda was a pseudonym for Georgina Castle Smith (1845-1934). She produced a total of 23 books during her 59-year writing career, many of which were for children or young adults.
