This is a poetry illustration project for ENGL 208 Children’s Literature. For this project, we were asked to select a poem intended for children that were eight to no more than fourteen lines. We were then asked to illustrate the poem on a page that would be visually appealing to a child’s audience.
The Crocodile
Lewis Carroll – 1832-1898
How doth the little crocodile
Improve his shining tail,
And pour the waters of the Nile
On every golden scale!
How cheerfully he seems to grin,
How neatly spreads his claws,
And welcomes little fishes in,
With gently smiling jaws!
