內容簡介
ONCE UPON A TIME there was a miller who had three sons. He was so poor that when he died he left nothing but his mill, his donkey and his cat.
The mill, of course, had to be left to his eldest son. The donkey went to his second son. Then all that was left for the youngest son was his father's cat.
"Alas!" sighed the youngest son,
"Puss is no use to me and I am too poor even to feed him."
作者簡介
Ladybird books are known and loved the world over. For millions of people, they bring back the golden days of childhood - learning to read, discovering the magic of books, and growing up.
The very first Ladybird book ever was produced by a jobbing printer called Wills & Hepworth during the First World War. The company, based in Loughborough, Leicestershire, began to publish 'pure and healthy literature' for children, registering the Ladybird logo in 1915. Despite the company's claims, however, those books would no longer be politically correct. In the ABC Picture Book, for example, A stood for armoured train!
