Description

This compact volume brings together a delightful series of musical settings for some of the most beloved verses from a classic fantasy tale. Composer Lucy E. Broadwood captures the playful rhythm and eccentric spirit of the original poetry, while Charles Folkard’s colourful illustrations add a visual sparkle that echoes the whimsical world. First published in the early 1920s, the book offers both a nostalgic glimpse of its era and a fresh listening experience for today’s audiences.

Listeners can enjoy familiar numbers such as “How Doth the Little Crocodile,” “The Lobster Quadrille,” and the haunting “Jabberwocky,” each presented with convenient MIDI links and downloadable sheet music. The arrangement balances sing‑along simplicity with clever musical twists, making the collection suitable for casual listeners, children, and anyone who loves a good lyrical puzzle. With each track, the original wit and imagination shine through, inviting you to revisit the quirky tea‑parties and fantastical adventures in song.

About the author

Lewis Carroll

Lewis Carroll

1832–1898

Best known for sending Alice down the rabbit hole, this quietly inventive Victorian writer mixed playful nonsense with a sharp mathematical mind. His stories still charm readers with their dream logic, wordplay, and sense of wonder.
