Purchase options and add-ons

Never out of print since 1918, this new paperback edition will whet the appetite of a whole new generation of 'puddin' fanciers'.

The Magic Pudding was first cooked in 1918, and thousands of children (and their parents) have been relishing it ever since.

Norman Lindsay's timeless classic follows the adventures of debonair young koala Bunyip Bluegum, sailor Bill Barnacle and penguin Sam Sawnoff - owners of the much-desired Magic Puddin' Albert - who try to out-wit Possum and Wombat, the professional, and extraordinarily persistent, puddin'-thieves.

This new paperback edition includes all the original illustrations and, for those who have not yet tasted this puddin's magic delights, it is definitely worth savouring.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed with this version
Reviewed in Australia on 16 April 2024
Verified Purchase
Normally, there is nothing wrong with a paperback version of a classic. However, this proved to be in a very small format and very flimsy. The paper was so thin that the printing was visible on the reverse side of the page.
It was intended to be a gift for a little friend; I expected him to be able to look at the illustrations now and to be ready to read it in a few years. Sadly, I don't think this edition would survive that long.
I couldn't find a proper, hardcover edition from any of the usual sources but, fortunately, I stumbled on a second hand one in excellent condition at the last minute.
So, my little friend has what I intended while I am left with the one which is the subject of this review. I must get around to reading and seeing how well I remember the story.

Love the book - though its probably a little more fun for adults than very little kids.
Even though it was a 'used' copy it was in excellent condition.
Very pleased with this purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the funniest books I've ever read
Reviewed in the United States on 27 April 2014
Verified Purchase
I read to my husband and daughter, and we were all nearly weeping with laughter. This book is wonderful! I guess it was the result of a bet between two authors, per WIkipedia: is said to have been written to settle an argument: a friend of Lindsay's said that children like to read about fairies, while Lindsay asserted that they would rather read about food and fighting.

In my opinion, Lindsay won (and this was a huge hit, too).

5.0 out of 5 stars A pudding that is truly magical
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 September 2012

I had NOT even heard of this book until a few years ago when I had the very good fortune to visit Australia. Many people told me of it and I was determined to find a copy once I got home. Imagine my surprise to find that NO ONE here in the US had even heard of it. This is a wonderful book - funny and enjoyable to read. Better than the rubbish that most kids read today. I recommend it to both kids and adults.

Reviewed in Germany on 11 June 2009

Dieses Buch gehört zu den Klassikern der australischen Kinderbuchliteratur. Der Maler Norman Lindsay, der in Australien sehr bekannt ist, hat dieses lustige Kinderbuch geschrieben. Vielleicht können heute eher Erwachsene mit diesem Buch etwas anfangen. Da ich das Museum dieses Malers schon besucht habe, habe ich es besonders genossen. Norman Lindsay muss ein sehr heiterer und auch kritischer Zeitgenosse gewesen sein, der das Leben liebte.

A classic but it loses a lot as an eBook because the original illustrations are omitted.
