Down the rabbit-hole and through the looking-glass! Lewis Carroll's
novels Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the
Looking-Glass (first published in 1865 and 1871, respectively) have
entertained readers young and old for more than a century. Their
magical worlds, amusing characters, clever dialogue, and playfully
logical illogic epitomize the wit and whimsy of Carroll's writing.
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland transports you down the
rabbit-hole into a wondrous realm that is home to a White Rabbit, a
March Hare, a Mad Hatter, a tea-drinking Dormouse, a grinning
Cheshire Cat, the Queen of Hearts and her playing-card retainers,
and all manner of marvelous creatures. Through the Looking-Glass is
your passport to a topsy-turvy world on the other side of the
mirror, where you have to run fast just to stay in place, memory
works backwards, and it is possible to believe as many as six
impossible things before breakfast. Alice's Adventures in
Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass is the first in a new
collection of Children's Deluxe editions. These volumes will
feature foil-stamped binding and distinctive gilt edging and an
attractive ribbon bookmark. Additionally, this new deluxe

Tenniel.

In 1865, English author CHARLES LUTWIDGE DODGSON (1832-1898), aka
Lewis Carroll, wrote a fantastical adventure story for the young
daughters of a friend. The adventures of Alice-named for one of the
little girls to whom the book was dedicated-who journeys down a
rabbit hole and into a whimsical underworld realm instantly struck
a chord with the British public, and then with readers around the
world. Here, in one volume, you'll find both Alice's Adventures in
Wonderland and the 1872 sequel, Through the Looking-Glass.
Together, this is a masterwork of playful prose in which the author
has invented some of the most memorable characters in literature:
the White Rabbit, the Mad Hatter and the Red Queen. The conundrums
and delights of these works ensure their ongoing influence over
modern pop culture. This unabridged replica edition features the
original illustrations by English artist SIR JOHN TENNIEL
(1820-1914), and is a treasured addition to any library.
