Synopsis:
  • "Girlie visits the strange land of Why, where all questions are answered and things are topsy-turvy, and meets the land's strange ruler, the Wallypug." --summary, WorldCat library record of the 1st US ed., OCLC 47652974
  • "... describing the adventures of a child named Girlie on her journey through Wonderland on a mission the object of which is to satisfy her insatiable curiosity. The story is distinctly amusing, though it cannot claim originality. The creatures Girlie meets with are intensely addicted to puns and plays upon words, to parodies on classic rhymes, and the other vagaries peculiar to the inhabitants of the Wonderland of the original traveller Alice; but puns, plays on words, and parodies are all original of their kind and really funny." --Manchester Guardian 1895-11-16 p9 "Christmas Books: II: Illustrated Books"
