Bevis is a small and solitary boy who lives in a magical world of talking animals. He becomes involved in feuds and intrigues of the farmyard and woodland animals in an attempt to dethrone their king, Knapchack the magpie.
About the Author: John Richard Jefferies (6 November 1848 – 14 August 1887) was an English nature writer, noted for his depiction of English rural life in essays, books of natural history, and novels. His childhood on a small Wiltshire farm had a great influence on him and provides the background to all his major works of fiction. For all that, these show a remarkable diversity, including Bevis (1882), a classic children's book, and After London (1885), an early work of science fiction.
