Amália Bezerédj (1804–1837) was a Hungarian writer.[1] She founded a school on her husband's estate and wrote Flóri könyve, 'Flori's Book' for her daughter. This is considered the first significant Hungarian children's book, although it and her other work, a reader for village children, were not published until three years after her death.
