Hey, someone likes to read the same stuff I do!

Just about anybody who has a chance to read Belloc in full cry likes him.

I discovered him at about age 7, when a summer camp counselor read the "Cautionary Verses" aloud, with feeling, to us during nap time. Enjoyed him ever since.

My favorite is probably "Matilda, Who Told Lies and Was Burned to Death" although "Rebecca, Who Slammed Doors For Fun and Perished Miserably" is running a close second.
