Kingsley passes moral judgement on all the evils of his day, by means of Tom a chimney sweep who is transformed into a water baby. If you are interested in the Victorian period this offers plenty of insights about what was going on at the period and what people thought about it. As a story it is O.K but due to the casual racism towards the 'poor paddy's' and 'Negroes' it's not one to read to the kids. A curiosity.

Typical Augusten Burroughs; dry, thoughtful, mean and funny. Loved it! :)
I felt that given the current relevance it could have had a little more meat to it.
