Short collection of poems Carroll wrote for two of his younger siblings when he was 13.
Very entertaining and, as was remarked in the preface, you can see hints of what he writes later - like the story of Humpty-Dumpty. The poems originally all had illustrations done by Carroll himself, but only a handful of the drawings were included in this version, which is too bad.

Recommend if you feel like reading some cute and silly poetry 😛

7.5/10
