The younger brother, John, who began by adapting some of Bewick’s drawings, is better known as an illustrator of children’s books. Between 1790 and 1820, there are few cuts that do not show some trace of his influence, and many of those in the smaller chap-books,—_The Adventures of a Pincushion_, for example, and _The Life and Adventures of a Fly_,[100]—have been attributed to him.
