“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!”
This story uses funny words that you just can‘t help but absolutely love it. This story is a great introduction of Alice in Wonderland to children. This poem is just as silly as the full story so it will pique kids interests and help them to explore worlds that are fantastical and have them use their imagination.
This poem is a nonsense poem that shows the fight of good over evil. This nonsense poem keeps the kids interested and shows them a different style of poem they may not be used to.
Scrolling through Facebook today and came across a post from my local library that they were having a sale today! Fill your own bag for $3 or one of theirs for $6.
8 books for $3, yes please!

Hi 👋
I thought it would be fun to introduce ourselves, as there are a few names new to me. I'll also add links to the Naturalitsy posts in the comments.
I started #Naturalitsy in Aug '22, looking to connect with other nature lovers. It has been so much fun. Being outdoors is my go-to relaxation, therapy and classroom. There's always something new to learn. I'm Mum to 4 teens and live in rural Derbyshire, UK.
As my next read is the tagged book, or I should say re-read, I was put in mind of Lewis Caroll for #weirdwords Specifically one of my favorite poems of all time, including one of my all-time favorite nonce words coined by Caroll: vorpal sword. Jabberwocky, alongside Carroll's other works, is a treasure trove of great words, as this article shows:

yet somehow I've come across this word in my reading on two separate occasions this week... in completely unrelated books

I enjoyed the author‘s earlier “Oxford” book so I eagerly grabbed this from the library. Unfortunately, I didn‘t find it satisfying read. That may have a lot to do with the plot‘s heavy reliance on logic problems: made me relieve anxious college experiences. However, I loved the central plot lines based on Lewis Carroll and the Alice books and it was nice to “meet” G again. Beware the discussions of graphic photos of children if they trigger.
