About the book

Mrs Henry de la Pasture's The Unlucky Family is a children's novel about a family whose ordinary plans have an extraordinary tendency to go wrong. A succession of mishaps, misunderstandings and comic disasters tests the children's resourcefulness while creating a lively picture of Edwardian family life. Warm, humorous and gently satirical, the book became a much-loved classic of early twentieth-century children's fiction.
