The snark puzzle book Author:Martin Gardner The best of all combinations! What could be more delightful to young readers than Lewis Carroll's nonsense poem "The Hunting of the Snark," with its original illustrations by Henry Holiday, side by side with Martin Gardner's Snarkteasers--75 puzzling questions like these: If it hails on the ship at midnight while the ship is at anchor, can the... more » weather be warm and sunny 72 hours later? Assume that the ship stays anchored at the same spot. (ANSWER: No, in 72 hours it will be midnight again.) Can you rearrange the letters of OCEAN to spell something in which one can spend days on the ocean? But if the ocean is frisky, it's risky. (ANSWER: Canoe) Young Snark-hunters have been sailing along with this extraordinary seagoing crew in search of a Snark since the poem was first published more than 100 years ago. And Martin Gardner's Snarkteasers are sure to make this fantastic voyage more enchanting than ever before. A delightful dividend for Snark fans is the text of another famous Carroll poem, "Jabberwocky," with Sir John Tenniel's original illustrations.« less
