The Story of the Four Little Children Who Went Round the World

"The Story of the Four Little Children Who Went Round the World" is a delightfully absurd short story by Edward Lear, following Violet, Slingsby, Guy, and Lionel as they sail a blue-and-green-spotted boat into the wildest corners of an impossible world. Their journey takes them to an island carpeted in veal cutlets and chocolate drops, into a sea choked with Tongfish, and to a glowing land of Blue-Bottle Flies living in blue bottles. Each encounter — whether negotiating pudding with vengeful Mice or helping Crabs knit woolen gloves — escalates in cheerful, illogical wonder.
