This book pays a quirky and fanciful tribute to the work of famed Victorian children’s author and non-sense wordsmith genius Lewis Carroll. Kathleen Krull uses Carroll’s own made-up words to tell a story about him and ends the book with a glossary of Carroll’s famously penned words like slithy and brilling and notes on his life. Although Carroll’s words remain fun to read and pronounce, Krull’s works too hard to use these words in a story that makes sense. As a result, the narrative seems forced and tiresome to read. Illustrator, Júlia Sardà however, fills the book from cover to cover with pictures and colors that rival the whimsicality of Carroll’s own written work and characterizes to the cleverness of Carroll’s talent.

The wordsmith Lewis Carroll is famed for the freewheeling world of Wonderland in his beloved classics Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. In this gloriously illustrated picture book, Carroll's childlike love of life is showcased alongside his brilliance at creating and adapting playful words and phrases.

Charming illustrations don't attempt to imitate Tenniel's style, but don't stray far from the spirit: round, grump-faced Tweedledum and Tweedledee are immediately recognizable, as are the variety of unusual birds; Alice has short, dark hair and a white dress, and the Queen is spectacularly fierce as she sends her playing cards after Alice.
Enlarged, color-coded words and phrases throughout the story can be found again at the back of the book in a partial glossary of words adapted and invented by Lewis Carroll in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Through the Looking-Glass, and The Hunting of the Snark. ( )
