Carroll, Lewis, Tenniel, John, Gardner, Martin. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland: and Through the Looking Glass. New York : Signet Classics, 2001.
A classic favourite among adults and children. Alice in Wonderland is about a girl who falls down a rabbit hole and enters into a new world of fascinating animals and characters. The adventure that Alice embarks on becomes a strange and confusing place. Only time will tell if Alice will be able to make it back home.
Lewis uses third person narration but occasionally first and second person. Readers are able to follow Alice's journey, hear her feelings and thoughts throughout the book. Lewis' writing style can be described as witty and nonsensical. The tone throughout the book is whimsical and humorous. Alice in Wonderland is for all readers, there is never a dull moment, readers will find the book to be lighthearted and leisurely paced.
The book has inspired many different adaptions including films, television, comics, live performances and music records.
There are two recent film releases, Alice in Wonderland in 2010 and Alice Through the Looking Glass in 2016.
