DODGSON, Charles Lutwidge (?Lewis Carroll?) (1832-1898). -- ADAMS, Maryline Poole, illustrator. Jabberwocky. Arranged as a Play with Music. Berkeley: Poole Press, 1987. LIMITED EDITION, number 9 of 75 copies SIGNED by Adams, printed on Rives heavyweight paper. ?Jabberwocky: A Play with Music was created both as a real play for children to perform; and as a vehicle to slow down one's usual chanting recitation of the first verse and discover the wit behind Lewis Carroll's nonsense words. Music was composed for some of the verses because songs make a play more fun to perform...? (from the Preface).
