The Bad Child's Book of Beasts is an 1896 children's book written by Hilaire Belloc. Illustrated by Basil Temple Blackwood, the superficially naive verses give tongue-in-cheek advice to children. In the book, the animals tend to be sage-like, and the humans dull and self-satisfied. Within the first three months of its publication, The Bad Child's Book of Beasts sold 4,000 copies. Lord Alfred Douglas accused Belloc of plagiarizing his work Tales with a Twist, which, although published two years after The Bad Child's Book of Beasts, was, according to Douglas, written before Belloc's work.

  • The Bad Child's Book of Beasts is an 1896 children's book written by Hilaire Belloc. Illustrated by Basil Temple Blackwood, the superficially naive verses give tongue-in-cheek advice to children. In the book, the animals tend to be sage-like, and the humans dull and self-satisfied. Within the first three months of its publication, The Bad Child's Book of Beasts sold 4,000 copies. Lord Alfred Douglas accused Belloc of plagiarizing his work Tales with a Twist, which, although published two years after The Bad Child's Book of Beasts, was, according to Douglas, written before Belloc's work. The illustrations have also drawn comparison to the works seen in Dr. Seuss books. The Dodo The Dodo used to walk around, And take the sun and air. The sun yet warms his native ground – The Dodo is not there! The voice which used to squawk and squeak Is now for ever dumb – Yet may you see his bones and beak All in the Mu-se-um. (en)

  • Книга зверей для несносных детей — детская книга 1896 года, написанная франко-английским писателем и историком Хилэром Беллоком. Книга была проиллюстрирована художником Бэзилом Темплом Блэквудом. Внешне наивные стихи дают шутливые советы детям. В книге животные, как правило, похожи на мудрецов, а люди скучны и самодовольны. За первые три месяца после публикации «Книга зверей для несносных детей» было продано 4000 экземпляров. Лорд Альфред Дуглас обвинил Беллока в плагиате его работы «Tales with a Twist», которая, хотя и была опубликована через два года после «Книга зверей для плохого ребенка», была, по словам Дугласа, написана до работы Беллока. Иллюстрации также сравнивают с работами из книг доктора Сьюза. (ru)
