More than anything in the world, children need to be loved! A child with poor manners and impolite behavior is tolerated, but rarely welcomed with the glee of open arms. For over a century manners and polite behavior as set out in Goops and How To Be Them has been a source of entertainment and a delightful way to teach children of all ages polite behavior. Gelett Burgess, the original author, and Goops Unlimited both feel polite behavior and manners allow children to be welcomed with open arms and joy.
In 2005 Barbara Ross had the foresight to reintroduce this timeless piece of work in a vivid watercolor rendition by illustrator Diana Camille. Thanks to their collaboration, a new generation of children will have an opportunity to enjoy thewhimsical illustrations and happy rhyme of the Goops.
Diana Camille has captured the Goops in all of their enchantment. From Burgess' intricate black and white illustrations, to Camille's vivid watercolors, Goops Unlimited is pleased to present A Treasury of Goops! |
