response to charles darwin’s theory of evolution. the book is also a satire of
victorian england and the issues of child labour and poverty at that time. the
water-babies is the story of tom the chimney sweep who falls underwater and
becomes a water baby. tom has many adventures and meets other water babies
while he undergoes a moral evolution and, eventually, travels to the end of the
world.
the water-babies is a
classic of british children’s literature, and it influenced legal reform to
limit child labour in england throughout the 1860s and 1870s. it has been said
that the book influenced lewis carroll’s writing of alice’s adventures in
wonderland, which was published two years after the water-babies . the book’s
popularity has endured and it has been adapted into a musical, a play, a radio
series on bbc and an animated film.
the novel remains a
