During a boat trip up the Isis River with Reverend Robinson Duckworth
and the three young daughters of Henry Liddell, one of whom is named
Alice, Lewis Carroll, the pen name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson,
invents a story about a bored little girl named Alice who goes looking
for an adventure. Several years later this tale would be forever
immortalized as “Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.” The story
begins with Alice idly passing away the time next to a river when she
sees a White Rabbit in a waistcoat with a pocket watch pass by. She
follows the rabbit down the rabbit hole and ends up in the fantasy
world of Wonderland. “Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.” is filled
with a plethora of interesting and fantastical creatures. Along with
the persistently tardy White Rabbit, Alice encounters a blue
Caterpillar smoking a hookah, the mischievously grinning Cheshire Cat,
a Mad Hatter, a March Hare, and a sleepy little Dormouse, whom she
attends a tea party with, the King and Queen of Hearts, along with
many other curious characters. Beloved my millions of children and
adults ever since its first publication, “Alice's Adventures in
Wonderland” is a classic tale of fantasy that has been cherished by
readers ever since its first publication and will surely delight for
many years to come. Also included in this volume is the sequel,
“Through the Looking-Glass.” This edition includes all the
original illustrations by John Tenniel and a biographical afterword.
