I was looking to add Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass to our bookshelves. I stumbled upon this copy at a local store and fell in love with it. The sketches take the reader back to a time when the story was originally written. My son who was turned off to the tale when the movie came out a few years ago with Johnny Depp fell in love with the book in the first few pages.

This particular edition is being loved in our house. My son doesn't even realize he is reading for 'school' at the moment.

I would recommend this copy to any homeschooler or teacher looking for the look and feel of the original pages to give their child. Or anyone looking for that feel.

We are more than happy with the book.

As far apart from the Disney classic as the movie version of Moby Dick is to its literary partner, Alice in Wonderland portrays the fanciful tale of the little girl, Alice, wandering about in a world of her own childhood imaginings and storybook recollections. If you have never actually READ the book, than you have a chance to know what your mother always thought would scare you as a little child, but really just adds to the fantastical wonderland which was the author's intention.
