Forester first told the stories about Harold Heavyside Brown and his pet dragons?the first of whom is named, naturally enough, Horatio?in order to entice youngest son to abandon a ?hunger strike? during his mother?s absence: Forester recounted the stories at dinnertime, ?but would only tell them if George would eat. If George stopped eating, Forester stopped talking Art by Robert Lawson (October 4, 1892 ? May 27, 1957), an American author and illustrator of children's books."
