The Little Tramp

The desperate poverty of the father, endless quarrels in the family, and beatings from the eternally drunk stepmother force Jim to run away from home and become a vagabond. The homeless boy sleeps with his friends in the slums of... London, sleeping on the damp ground. During the day, he makes a living on the streets, stealing whatever comes to hand or feeding on scraps. A lucky chance helps the boy escape poverty and start an honest working life.
The story of the little tramp, who has experienced all the hardships of a wandering life, poverty, fear, and loneliness, is told by the classic of English children's literature James Greenwood (1833-1929) and is widely known in Russia. The book has gone through more than forty editions in our country and has always been warmly received by readers.
Retelling from English by A. Annenkova.
