Jabberwocky and Other Poems (Dover Thrift Editions: Poetry)

Just wanted to read some poems of an author I liked that were fun, maybe even nonsensical. So I ordered this edition and started reading the poems. It has been a while since I read poems, so this is just reading them and enjoying them, looking at what is there. Learning more, by reading other poems of the 19th century understanding will grow, and when I return at another time, who knows, what I will read and understand then?There is only a little introduction to the author and his poems, tracing his biography in a few lines and his major works as in Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass.

Great gift

Lewis Carrol's work, written for children, return to one as an adult as a fascinating nonsense selection which make a lot of adult sense looking back on a long life. I am reading them again at 85!

Classic poems every child should read or be read to

Interesting words from a great mind.
