Helen's Babies

Helen's Babies is a charming and humorous novel written by John Habberton in 1877. The story follows the adventures of a young bachelor, Harry Burton, who is left in charge of his sister's two young children, Budge and Toddie, for a week. The novel is written in a series of letters from Harry to his best friend, describing the antics and misadventures of the two young boys. Budge and Toddie are innocent, droll, fascinating, roguish, mischievous, and sometimes downright naughty. They get into all sorts of trouble, from playing with matches to attempting to ride a cow. Harry struggles to keep up with their boundless energy and endless questions, but he also finds himself growing attached to them and their unique personalities. The novel is a delightful portrayal of childhood innocence and the joys and challenges of parenthood. It also offers a glimpse into Victorian-era child-rearing practices and attitudes towards childhood. Despite being over a century old, Helen's Babies remains a timeless classic that will charm readers of all ages.Also, A Partial Record Of Their Actions During Ten Days Of Their Experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
