A ​Mélység London nyomornegyedéről szóló szociográfia, amelyben London kendőzetlenül sötét képet festett a gyári munkások, a mun­kanélküliek és a koldusok életéről.
„London utcáin bárhol elkerülhetjük a sze­gények nyomorának megpillantását, míg öt­percnyi út akárhonnan a sikátorokba visz. De ahol most törtetett keresztül a kocsim, az a sikátorok végtelen szövevénye volt. Új, egé­szen másfajta nép hemzsegett a szűk kis utcá­kon, kicsire nőtt, nyomorult, sörtől átitatott alakok. Mérföldeket mentünk puszta kőfal és omladékok között, és amerre néztünk a szom­széd utcákban, mindenütt ugyanazok a kövek, ugyanazon nyomorúság képe meredt reánk. Itt-ott egy-két részeg férfi vagy nő tántorgott el, a levegő verekedéstől, káromkodástól volt terhes. A piacon reszkető öreg emberek, asszonyok keresgéltek a sárba szórt szemétben rothadt krumplit, babot meg zöldséget, míg a gyerekek, mint a legyek, úgy gyűltek rá egy csomó rothadó gyümölcsre, vállig turkáltak a folyékony, romlott halomban, és ott nyomban lenyelték a morzsát, amit kihalásztak, a félig poshadt darabokat…”

MANY of these stories of field life were written for the little ones of my kindergarten, and they gave so much pleasure, and aroused such a new interest in "the meadow people," that it has seemed wise to collect and add to the original number and send them out to a larger circle of boys and girls.All mothers and teachers hear the cry for "just one more," and find that there are times when the bewitching tales of animals, fairies, and "really truly" children are all exhausted, and tired imagination will not supply another. In selecting the tiny creatures of field and garden for the characters in this book, I have remembered with pleasure the way in which my loyal pupils befriended stray crickets and grasshoppers, their intense appreciation of the new realm of fancy and observation, and the eagerness and attention with which they sought Mother Nature, the most wonderful and tireless of all story-tellers.
