À propos de ce contenu audio

 Dive into Cupids Cyclopedia, a delightful 1910 work by the witty English-born American humorist, Oliver Herford, with the talented illustrator John Cecil Clay. Renowned for his sharp humor and clever quips—like “Many are called but few get up” and “Only the young die good”—Herford presents a whimsical alphabetical compilation of words and their definitions that explore the whimsical journey of true love. The book concludes with Amoria, a playful essay that serves as an imaginative travelogue to “the most ancient and honorable country upon the earth’s surface.” Enhanced by numerous illustrations, Herfords insights become even more entertaining and accessible. Although an appendix is mentioned, it has been removed, adding an air of mystery to this charming piece. (Summary by David Wales)Copyright Kids Stories and Comedy
