About This Item
London: David Nutt, 1895 Katawampus is a mysterious illness well known in our nurseries, and perhaps best translated as 'fractiousness' though it is even more comprehensive than that indispensable word. To cure the four nice little children of this fell disease, they are sent to a delightful goblin who lives in a cave, and who 'puts them in new tempers' for a consideration. A droll text with excellent pen illustrations by Archie Macgregor in the arts and crafts style. 96 pages. Illustrated top and bottom boards, lightly soiled. Small closed tear to front end paper and first stage internal crack to bottom hinge.
