Today’s poem is a series of increasingly vital pleas. Happy reading. For more of Belloc’s advice to the young, find yourself a copy of Cautionary Tales for Children!
I was the speaker in this poem for many years. I lectured my oldest daughter about destroying books by scribbling in them. I have mellowed in my old age but I still get very upset at people who burn books. Books are sacred.
