PUSSY and DOGGY TALES - 13 Children's Tales about Cats and Dogs

By E. Nesbit

"Pussy and Doggy Tales" is a collection of 13 short stories for children about dogs and cats published by Edit Nesbit in 1899 – she who wrote “The Railway Children” and “Five Children and IT” amongst many others. The collection follows the lives and adventures of various cats and dogs which are further enhanced by 18 pen and ink illustrations by L. Kemp-Welch.

This charming children's collection will appeal to animal-loving children and would make for perfect bedtime reading. The tales include: "Too Clever by Half", "The White Persian", "A Powerful Friend", "A Silly Question", "The Selfish Pussy", "Meddlesome Pussy", "Nine Lives", "Tinker", "Rats!", "The Tables Turned", "A Noble Dog", "The Dyer's Dog", "The Vain Setter", etc. Other notable works by this author include: "The Prophet's Mantle" (1885), "Something Wrong" (1886), and "The Marden Mystery" (1896). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality eBook format.

Edith Nesbit (1858 - 1924) was a prolific and popular writer of children's literature, publishing more than 60 such books under the name E. Nesbit. She was also a political activist and co-founded the Fabian Society, which had a significant influence on the Labour Party and British politics in general.

E. Nesbit

E. Nesbit (1858–1924) began writing for young adults after a successful career in magazines. Using her own unconventional childhood as a jumping-off point, she published novels that combined reality, fantasy, and humor. Expanded from a series of articles in the Strand Magazine, Five Children and It was published as a novel in 1902 and is the first in a trilogy that includes The Phoenix and the Carpet and The Story of the Amulet. Together with her husband, Nesbit was a founding member of the socialist Fabian Society, and her home became a hub for some of the greatest authors and thinkers of the time, including George Bernard Shaw and H. G. Wells.
