TWO NOVELS IN A SINGLE BOOK
Fully illustrated with the original illustrations by Sir John Tenniel.
Read two of the greatest English masterpieces of all time:
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1866) and its sequel, Through the Looking Glass (1872), by Lewis Carroll.
The young Alice is bored in a too conventional world. But here goes a White Rabbit, dressed in a frock coat with a pocket watch. Alice follows the hasty hare and falls into Wonderland, a fantasy world populated by peculiar creatures and governed by the wicked Queen of Hearts. A world where nothing makes sense
And when Alice passes through the mirror, she faces an upside down world where many more surprises await her ...
These amazing tales are a brilliant mix of fantasy, farcical satire and nonsense, where Alice encounters a twisted cast of unforgettable characters. Lewis Carroll takes us into the children's world of make-believe where the height of adventure is limited only by the depths of imagination.
Follow Alice's fantastic journey in this definitive edition which includes both masterpieces, unabridged and fully illustrated with the original illustrations by John Tenniel.
Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (1832-1898), better known by his pen name, Lewis Carroll, was an English writer, Anglican deacon, photographer and professor of mathematics and logic at Christ Church College. Alice's adventures originally emerged to entertain Alice Liddell and her two sisters, daughters of the Dean of Christ Church, during a rowing trip on the Thames River.
The works encountered an instant success and had a huge impact on popular culture worldwide.
Travel with Alice down the rabbit hole into the fantastic world of Wonderland, and help a cast of extraordinary characters solve these tantalising puzzles and enigmas.
Lewis Carroll, the author of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, was a huge fan of puzzles and was said to have invented the word ladder.

Each of these puzzles is set within a short adventure of Alice's and accompanied by the original pen-and-ink illustrations by Sir John Tenniel.

Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland has been loved by children and adults for generations. However, 150 years after its original publication, Carroll's Victorian prose and syntax may prove a barrier to enjoyment for young children - and their parents.
This Modern Parent's Edition of Alice is meant to unlock the joy and wonder of Carroll's world for young listeners and readers alike. It has been very gently adapted by K.N. Kind to preserve all of the original story, major characters, and much of the original beautiful language about identity and the trials of growing up.
This version is not meant to replace the original, but rather to create an entry point for first time listeners who might otherwise have trouble following along. The wonderful original illustrations by John Tenniel are included as well.
We hope you and your loved ones enjoy this fresh but highly respectful and loving adaptation of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
