The Magic Pudding is a classic children's book written by Norman Lindsay, first published in 1918. The story follows the adventures of three friends: Bill Barnacle, Sam Sawnoff, and Bunyip Bluegum, as they journey through the Australian bush in search of the elusive Magic Pudding. This pudding is a magical dessert that never runs out, no matter how much is eaten, and it is fiercely guarded by its owner, a cantankerous old koala named Albert. Throughout their journey, the trio encounters a variety of eccentric characters, including a talking possum, a penguin who thinks he's a sea serpent, and a band of vicious pudding thieves. They also have to contend with the treacherous antics of their own pudding, who has a mischievous personality and a tendency to run away whenever it senses danger. The Magic Pudding is a humorous and entertaining tale that has become a beloved classic in Australian literature. It is filled with witty wordplay, memorable characters, and charming illustrations by the author himself. The book has been adapted into several stage productions, radio dramas, and animated films, and it continues to delight children and adults alike with its whimsical storytelling and delightful sense of humor.The plain truth was that Bunyip and his Uncle lived in a small house in a tree, and there was no room for the whiskers. What was worse, the whiskers were red, and they blew about in the wind, and Uncle Wattleberry would insist on bringing them to the dinner table with him, where they got in the soup.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
