THE CHIPPENDALE DAM by Hugh Troy

THE CHIPPENDALE DAM

By

Publisher: Oxford

Nonsense tale about the pet beavers who chewed up the priceless Chippendale for which their mistress had refused a fabulous sum --of how they made into a dam when the house was flooded -- and of how the fashion for Chippendale dams was made all the rage. The implications seem to me very adult and the good end to destructiveness is a bit risky with imaginative children.
