One Fun Day with Lewis Carroll: A Celebration of Wordplay and a Girl Named Alice

Autor Kathleen Krull Ilustrat de Júlia Sardà
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 ian 2018 – vârsta până la 9 ani
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.
