Book overview: Have you ever wondered…
Who really stole the Queen’s tarts? Whatever did become of the Walrus & the Carpenter after their nefarious jot down the briny beach with the little Oysters? Is there truly any sense to be found in nonsense at all?
Bookmark
Come follow Alice down the rabbit-hole once again as Lewis Carroll’s timeless classic is reimagined through the lyrical language of Wonderland…where a Caterpillar dispenses an indelible lesson, a Cat offers safe haven and (fairly) sound advice, and a Hatter and Hare throw a mad tea party before matching wits at the trial of the century!

A visit with old childhood friends, how wonderful! A frolicking backstory to Alice in Wonderland gets my wiskers a twitching! I can not wait to read this story!
Sounds so wonderful! We’re very deep in the rabbit hole in our house right now!
Since the movie came out, we have all been in an Alice in Wonderland mood….. you’ll hear lots of random “Off with your head” comments with an accent.
We’re also planning our own alice in wonderland party & we have found a beautiful leather bound alice in wonderland book that my 3 daughters will take turns reading so we would love to have this great new book in our library.
Ooh! Sounds lovely! We’re big fans of anything Wonderland-related in this house.
This looks like a wonderful book with fantastic illustrations.
Would love to see the illustrations for this.

As a mathematics teacher, it has amazed me that the author of the original Alice in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll, was also a mathematician and that much of the book is based upon mathematics. Yes, I have also wondered about these questions and would love to discover the answers. This sounds a book that I would really enjoy reading.
Thank you,
