Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is a classic story of imagination, fantasy, adventure, and mystery. Join Alice as she travels to the backward Wonderland and meets some new friends, the white rabbit, mad hatter, and red queen. This story is sure to keep you entertained as Alice explores this strange new world, learning about its occupants and about herself. 

This book is great for kids with active imaginations and who love reading fantasy books. It has a similar premise as The Chronicles of Narnia, travelling to a different world in a mundane fashion (see our reviews of The Magician's Nephew (1995) and The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe (1994)). 

I love this story with my entire heart, and it is a cherished classic from my childhood. There are some issues within the book that are glossed over, such as madness, but it is still a story I love to this day.
