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. From
brillig and uglification to frumious and chortle, the
award-winning author Kathleen Krull uses many of Carroll's own words to
tell the story of a man who wanted to make children laugh and whose
legacy continues to entertain and delight.
