| Summary | "Half-Past Bedtime" by Sir H. H. Bashford is a children's fantasy book written in the early 20th century. The story follows young characters like Marian, who embark on whimsical adventures filled with imaginative beings such as Mr. Jugg, the King of the Bumpies, as well as the exploration of enchanting realms and delightful encounters. The narrative is likely designed to appeal to the curiosity and imagination of children, taking them on journeys that evoke wonder and joy. At the start of the story, we are introduced to Marian, a seven-year-old girl, who finds herself in a field where she meets Mr. Jugg, a baby angel who leads her on a remarkable adventure below ground. Here, Marian discovers a magical world filled with colorful lights and jovial baby angels known as bumpies. After having tea with Mr. Jugg and his friends, she learns about their playful existence. The opening sets the stage for a series of enchanting tales, hinting at themes of exploration, innocence, and the magic of childhood that invites readers to believe in the extraordinary.
