Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll

A timeless heroine, Alice is quick witted, determined, and resourceful. In her extraordinary adventures she meets a series of unforgettable characters, from the bossy White Rabbit to the grinning Cheshire-Cat and the mad Hatter, all of whom are as famous as Alice herself. This gorgeous hardback gift edition includes Sir John Tenniel's much-loved illustrations with their original colouring which defines the authentic image of Alice as blond haired with blue stripy stockings. It also includes a foreword by Philip Pullman, one of today's most popular and distinguished children's writers.
