Through The Looking Glass - Lewis Carroll

Children love rude characters and there are splendid ones here: the Red Queen, Tweedledum & Tweedledee and Humpty Dumpty.
 
A perfectly wacky story which also gave us Jabberwocky, whose first stanza is the best made-up verse I have ever come across, lyrical and darkly hinting, conjuring up the mood of the scene with enigmatic suggestibility and rhythmic foreboding. The sound pattern is balanced just right and there is not a weak word or a syllable out of place. A satisfaction of nonsense.
 
“Somehow it seems to fill my head with ideas—only I don't exactly know what they are!” said Alice.
