The Dover Bookshelf steps into the whimsical world of Lewis Carroll with two of the English language's most popular and frequently quoted books. In Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, rabbits are chronically late, grinning cats disappear at will, and queens call for executions at the drop of a card. In the sequel, Through the Looking-Glass, the inquisitive heroine becomes trapped in a madcap, topsy-turvy world and is regaled with memorable poetry, including the oft-quoted "Jabberwocky."Fall down the rabbit hole and rediscover the magic of Carroll's timeless tales in this marvelously designed hardcover edition. Readers young and old will be enchanted by this collectible keepsake, which captures Carroll's unique blend of nonsense and sophisticated wordplay and features all of the original illustrations.
