Randolph Caldecott (1846-1886) was one of the most important
British illustrators. He transformed the world of decorated
children's books in the Victorian era. In 1877, he was asked by
Edmund Evans, the colour printer and talented engraver, to
illustrate two children's books. These books were an immediate
success and he went on to produce two books every Christmas until
he died. Caldecott chose all the stories and rhymes he illustrated
and occasionally wrote and added to the stories himself. His
delightful style and humour can still be enjoyed by young and old
alike. This story, 'An Elegy On The Death Of A Mad Dog', was
originally published in 1879. Many of the earliest children's
books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are
now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Pook Press are
working to republish these classic works in affordable, high
quality, colour editions, using the original text and artwork so
these works can delight another generation of children.
