| Summary | "The Wallypug in London" by G. E. Farrow is a whimsical children's novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the titular character, the Wallypug, who is a kind of king from a fantastic land called Why. He arrives in London with a peculiar entourage, leading to delightful misadventures as they interact with the real world and its inhabitants. The opening of the book sets the stage for the whimsical journey of the Wallypug and his companions, including the Doctor-in-Law, A. Fish, Esq., and the Jubilee Rhymester. After an amusing preface where Farrow connects with his young readers, we learn how the Wallypug arrives in London for the Jubilee celebrations. The narrative introduces the reader to the peculiar charm of the Wallypug, who is naive about the human world, creating a delightful blend of humor and innocence. The characters' introductions lead to a series of whimsical events as they navigate the complexities of London life, setting up a delightful adventure filled with humor and imaginative scenarios.
