Speaking of made-up words, how about "Jabberwocky"?

(I learned a lot of unlikely vocabulary from Beatrix Potter -- I wonder how many children acquired 'soporific' from "The Tale of the Flopsy Bunnies"? I don't think unknown words really worry children, because they're used to coming across them all the time anyway...)
