Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast. Lewis Carroll's masterpiece ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND and its equally famous sequel, THROUGH THE LOOKING-GLASS, are among the most quoted works in literature. Here, in a handy, pocket-sized volume, are the pithiest lines from the White Rabbit, the Mad Hatter, the Queen of Hearts and, of course, the irrepressible Alice, every one of them pertinent to today... and guaranteed to put a Cheshire grin on your face! Sir John Tenniel's original engravings have defined our image of Alice ever since the story was first published in 1865. Reproduced to the highest quality, the iconic images in this book will delight both fans and those discovering them for the first time. |
