Bookroo's summary
In a thrilling reimagining of Lewis Carroll's classic, a young hero takes on the formidable Jabberwocky in an epic basketball showdown. Armed with his trusty Vorpal 2000s, he must outwit and outplay the fourteen-fingered beast. Will his skills be enough to claim victory on the court, or will the Jabberwocky prove too powerful? Dive into this imaginative tale where poetry meets sports in a battle of wits and athleticism.
From the publisher
Why shouldn’t the Jabberwocky be a fourteen-fingered, slam-dunking beast?
Lewis Carroll challenged readers’ imaginations with his most famous poem, “Jabberwocky”. Here, Christopher Myers takes on that challenge by brilliantly re-imagining it as a face off on the basketball court. In this fresh take on the classic poem, our brave hero has mad skills, and with the help of his Vorpal 2000s, he emerges triumphant.
