"Humpty Dumpty's Little Son" by Helen Reid Cross is a children's book written in the early 20th century, likely in the first decade of the 1900s. This charming narrative follows the life of Little Dumpty, the son of the famed Humpty Dumpty, who lives with his mother, Widow Dumpty, after his father's unfortunate fall. The story captures the innocence and playful adventures of childhood, filled with themes of friendship, family, and the joys of discovery. The book details Little Dumpty's daily life, showcasing his adventures at home and school. His routine includes caring for a variety of pets, enjoying school with friends like Binkie, and partaking in beloved activities such as ponding and creating his own circus performances for his mother. As he navigates the challenges of childhood—like dealing with a mischievous rat or constructing elaborate card houses—Little Dumpty embodies curiosity and imagination.
