Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

About this book

Bored on a lazy afternoon, Alice follows a White Rabbit in a waistcoat and tumbles into a world where nothing behaves as it should. She shrinks and grows, meets a grinning Cheshire Cat, sits through an endless Mad Tea Party, and plays croquet with a Queen of Hearts who threatens beheadings at every turn. Carroll's playful masterpiece turns Victorian manners upside down, riddling its way through puns, parody, and pure imagination. Beneath the nonsense lies a sly commentary on rules, authority, and the logic of dreams, a book that feels as fresh to adults as to children, and as strange today as when it first appeared.
