Description
A lazy afternoon by the water melts away into a wild adventure when young Alice chases a mysterious White Rabbit straight into Wonderland. Created as a gift to one of his favorite young fans, Alice Liddell, this tale is Carroll's signature masterpiece of imaginative nonsense and trickery. Filled with characters and scenes that grow ever "curiouser and curiouser," this is a dazzling romp for young and old alike, as vivid and ethereal as only the best of dreams can be.

About the Author
Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, a.k.a. Lewis Carroll (1832-1898) was a magician of wordplay and imagination. Not only a writer, he was a gifted mathematician, logician, and a pioneering expert in the field of photography. Seeming at times to hail from one of the whimsical lands of his own making, Carroll led a charmed existence filled with friendships and admiration. An aura of glamour and mystery continues to surround Carroll's legend, as his work and identity are continual subjects of debate to this day. Although he is best known for his masterpiece, Alice in Wonderland, Carroll's other novels and poems, among them Through the Looking Glass, Jabberwocky, Sylvie and Bruno, and The Hunting of the Snark, offer timeless delight to readers of all ages.

So she was considering in her own mind (as well as she could, for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid), whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her.

Not so good as expected
Hearing so much about this story I had some great expectations about it. In my opinion the book did not to turn out to be so great. But I cannot say that the writer has no fantasy.

Not a child's tale.
I had read Alice in Wonderland many times, but it was not until I had fully matured that I actually understood it. Always thought Alice was on a bad acid trip; only to discover she had been dreaming under a tree. Too funny.

One of those dreams
I love this book. I love the humour and imagination. I always read it with such delights from the first time I read it when I was little and every other time I've re-read it.
It's like one of those dreams that you have.. when the scenes change so quick you don't really know what's going on. But you're so curious and you keep following it... and eventually you even try to continue the dream for as long as you can. Just to see what happens next.
The book always brings back the child in me and it makes me happy.
