Product description
Synopsis
First published in 1865, these endearing tales of an imaginative child's dream world by Lewis Carroll, pen name for Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, are written with charming simplicity. While delighting children with a heroine who represents their own thoughts and feelings about growing up, the tale is appreciated by adults as a gentle satire on education, politics, literature, and Victorian life in general. All the delightful and bizarre inhabitants of Wonderland are here: the White Rabbit and the Cheshire Cat, the hooka-smoking Caterpillar and the Mad Hatter, the March Hare and the Ugly Duchess . . and, of course, Alice herself - growing alternately taller and smaller, attending demented tea parties and eccentric croquet games, observing everything with clarity and rational amazement.

When Alice tumbles down, down, down a rabbit-hole one hot summer's afternoon in pursuit of a White Rabbit she finds herself in Wonderland. And there begin the fantastical adventures that will see her experiencing extraordinary changes in size, swimming in a pool of her own tears and attending the very maddest of tea parties. For Wonderland is no ordinary place and the characters that populate it are quite unlike anybody young Alice has ever met before. In this imaginary land she encounters the savagely violent Queen, the Lachrymose Mock Turtle, the laconic Cheshire Cat and the hookah-smoking Caterpillar, each as surprising and outlandish as the next. Alice's adventures have made her the stuff of legend, the child heroine "par excellence," and ensured that Carroll's book is the best loved and most widely read in children's literature.

Alice's Adventures Down the Rabbit Hole

If you're looking for a classic tale to read over and over, that will satisfy the curiosity and wonderment of a child while entertaining the intellect of adults, these two stories will ably take you down that path and topple you headlong into amazing worlds. They are of one cloth, joined by the protaganist, a little girl named Alice.

These two epics are long on poetry and vision. Well worth the short time it takes to read both from beginning to end, Alice's adventures down the rabbit hole and through the parlor mirror are sure to delight! And there is so much to experience while travelling that one read just isn't enough.

There are many versions of these stories available, but to get the most of what the author intended, the original text, verse, wordage is the best way to follow Alice on her way. This volume is in the original text. You'll be turning pages while meeting the most interesting and unusual "folks." Enjoy!

Wonderful, WONDERFUL books.

My personal two favorite books. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass are EXCELLENT books for ANY age range, in my opinion. What a great gift this makes for your children or any Lewis Carroll fan, or anyone who enjoys reading super good poetry and stories.

These two books are hardcover, and in EXCELLENT condition. They pages are thick, super glossy and gold-lined. They fit together in a hard box that is BEAUTIFULLY color-illustrated. What a collectors' piece. I absolutely recommend this product to anyone.

Alice's Adventures Are Remarkable!

Growing up as a child, this was my favorite book, which I handed down to my granddaughter several years ago. I had almost forgotten the lines to "Jabberwocky" so obtained this copy to re-memorize it to say in unison with same grandchild. Great reading for any child - or adult! An action/adventure/fantasy.

Delightful

This was a childhood favorite & I am now sharing it with my son. The detightful overtures Carroll inscribes into his sweet 'small friend' is something one could enjoy well into old age! Everytime i read these books I find something new & fall in love all over again.
