These individual poems and short stories by Lewis Carroll are among his most recognizable works. “Jabberwocky” and “The Walrus and the Carpenter” both appeared in Through the Looking-Glass and have been reprinted and illustrated as standalone books many times.

Carroll had a gift for coining words that stuck. “Chortle,” “galumph,” and “mimsy” all come from “Jabberwocky” and have been used by English speakers ever since. His shorter works range from comic verse like “The Pig-Tale” to more straightforward children’s stories like “One White Rabbit.”
