Sample Book Insights:

#1 The basketball was a Keaton prop for years to come. In 1899, the family’s first paid engagement as a trio at the Wonderland Theater in Wilmington, Delaware, Buster got laughs by bouncing the ball off his father’s head.

#2 Buster’s life as a performer and creator was extremely successful for the first three decades of the new century, catapulting his family from the greenhorn fringes of the entertainment industry to its topmost tiers in a remarkably short span of time.

#3 As the nineteenth century came to an end, child development was becoming more and more of a concern for governments and private organizations. Children were beginning to be seen as small, still-growing beings who were entitled to some degree of protection from both industrial and domestic harm.

#4 The moral contiguity between the suffering of children and that of animals was heavily emphasized in the media coverage of the Mary Ellen Wilson case. The girl was seen as both a helpless little girl and a homeless beast, and was given the same rights as a domestic animal.
