Little Lad-ification
by Ella Gray

October 20, 2022 Contributed By: Ella Gray

Illustration by Reginald Bathurst Birch from pg 153 of “Little Lord Fauntleroy” by Frances Hodgson Burnett, New-York, Charles Scribner's Sons, 1886

A 2007 Starburst commercial introduced the world to the Little Lad, a caricature of an old-timey foppish boy. The Little Lad dances about, tapping his toes and proclaiming his love for berries and cream.
