Summary "Blottentots, and How to Make Them" by John Prosper Carmel is a whimsical children's poetry book written in the early 20th century. It consists of playful and imaginative verses that introduce young readers to the fantastical world of "Blottentots," ink creations brought to life through creative expression. The book combines art with poetry, encouraging children to explore their creativity using ink and paper. The content of the book largely revolves around the concept of creating various imaginative characters from simple ink blots. Each poem describes unique, quirky creatures, such as a Gobble-Me-Up and a Grass Midget, often accompanied by lively illustrations. The verses not only entertain with their whimsical language but also engage children in creative thinking. Through enchanting illustrations and delightful rhymes, Carmel invites children to embrace their imagination and inspires them to experiment with creating their own "Blottentots," reinforcing the notion that art can emerge from play and spontaneity.
