Alice's Adventures

The Dover Bookshelf steps into the whimsical world of Lewis Carroll with two of the English language`s most popular and frequently quoted books. In Alice`s Adventures in Wonderland, rabbits are chronically late, grinning cats disappear at will, and queens call for executions at the drop of a card. In the sequel, Through the Looking-Glass, the inquisitive heroine becomes trapped in a madcap, topsy-turvy world and is regaled with memorable poetry, including the oft-quoted "Jabberwocky." Fall down the rabbit hole and rediscover the magic of Carroll`s timeless tales in this marvelously designed hardcover edition. Readers young and old will be enchanted by this affordable, collectible keepsake, which captures Carroll`s unique blend of nonsense and sophisticated wordplay and features all of the original illustrations. Printed in the USA.
