The Water Babies - by Charles Kingsley

[Sierra]

Author: Charles Kingsley / Year: 1819-1875  / Genre: 6-9 yrs.

The Water-Babies, A Fairy Tale for a Land Baby is a novel by the Reverend Charles Kingsley, first published in its entirety in 1863.
 Though some of the author's opinions are very dated now, the journey of a little chimney-sweep water-baby through rivers and
 storms, under sea and over iceberg, is still a classic, wonderful children's adventure.
