George Edward Farrow born in Ipswich in England, was a noted British children's book author of whose life little is known. During his literary career Farrow wrote more than thirty books for children. He encouraged his young readers to write to him, answered their letters, and let their tastes and opinions guide his future works (rather like his American contemporary L. Frank Baum). Though he wrote adventure tales and poetry, Farrow was best known for his nonsense books written in the tradition of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, especially his Wallypug series. Farrow's other books include The Missing Prince (1896) and The Little Panjandrum's Dodo (1899).
