    I once read Alice in Wonderland when I was younger and I thought it was okay. Not amazing, but okay. I reread it now a few years later in this edition and I think it was the illustrations that did it for me. I really enjoyed the story. The pictures brought so much to the story. I would recommend this edition. 5 out of 5 stars.

    The classic fantasy story, with wonderful pen and ink drawings by Sir John Tenniel. This is THE reading experience I remember from when I was 10.

    Having seen the Tim Burton interpretation and the Disney adaptation I really felt like to understand the storylines I would have to read the book.
    Although it's wacky and difficult to follow at parts, the storyline captures the imagination and you become emersed in this 'wonderland' with Alice.
    As I read the ebook version of this, I missed out on the illustrations, but having seen them before I can understand how the story would be enhanced by having them alongside. Overall I would give this 5/5 stars because of the storyline and the insight into this confused young girls mind that really captures your imagination.

    I rented this book on my kindle, it was very interesting and quite a page turner. I wish I could go to wonderland just for one night and see it all, even though Lewis Carroll uses wonderful imagery.

    Re-read it after many years and didn't find it held up very well. There are spasms of interest: the spaced out caterpillar and mugging Cheshire cat...but long intervals of dullness and doggerel weigh it down. An over-rated classic, redeemed (partially) by scenes of genuine absurdity and excessive silliness.

    This story tells of a girl named Alice who falls down a rabbit hole into a fantasy world.She met lots of strange crature,and taught them lots of interesting things.But shi also learned some things from these people.Maybe you feel that it just belongs to fairy tale,and for children only.However,as a part of young people,i think this story is excellent.I gained much imagination from it,i found the way of making our lives become more meaningful.As a result,you won't miss it if you are the person who love the life.

    As a child, I read the stories of Alice in Wonderland (and, later, Through the Looking Glass) with a sense of wonder and amusement. Alice shows that it is possible to engage with a world which makes no sense on her own terms; she is not overwrought at her lack of understanding of the improbable and bizarre happenings around her. She brings reason to bear in narrow, specific cases (such as when arguing with the Red Queen), but is not paralysed by the irrationality of general occurrence. In this, she is like all children - dealing with reality not by knowing, but by exploring and engaging. This sense of innocent inquiry creates great sympathy in the younger reader.As an adult (older, grizzled and perhaps wiser), re-reading these stories once again provokes wonder and amusement - but this time, the wonder is at the ingenuity of the author and the amusement is if anything greater. This shift in reaction is because, as an adult, I know a few things: I know that it is impossible (in general life!) for soldiers to be playing cards, for Cheshire cats to disappear from the tail and for children to shrink and grow at the slightest provocation. Knowing this increases my admiration for Lewis Carroll, as he has constructed a world where the impossible occurs, but not without its own logic.While there is nonsense, there is structure - and the impossibilities have the common feature that they are all things which might occur to an imaginative young child while daydreaming. Thus they are not simply random (which would be nowhere near so satisfying to read), they are linked and interlocked to form a thoroughly pleasing structure. The underlying structure of the poem Jabberwocky has been analysed at length in [Hoftstadter], which elicits further wonder at the interlinked meanings and senses in the work. The amusement, of course, comes from understanding more of the jokes!

    The classical book by Lewis Carrol of Alice in Wonderland has both stories of Alice in Wonderland, from the classic disney one to the modern one. This book is appropriate for all ages. There are two books of Alice in Wonderland one is "Alice in Wonderland" and the other one is "Through the looking glass" both books are about Alice's adventure in wonderland.

    I first met Alice and the world of Wonderland through the Disney animated film, but, per usual, the original text is worth revisiting! First published in 1865 and followed by Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There in 1871, this book follows the familiar and unfamiliar adventures of a young girl named Alice. Bored one afternoon, she spots a clothed, talking white rabbit running into a rabbit hole. She quickly follows it and begins her journey into Wonderland. Each chapter presents a new set of characters and challenges -- including the Caterpillar; the March Hare, Mad Hatter, and a Dormouse; an anthropomorphic kingdom of croquet-playing cards; and many others! The book has a decidedly darker and more eccentric tone than the Disney film, providing an excellent example of how children's literature has evolved over the centuries.

    Ya, I know it's a children's book. But certain children stories transcend age and have something to say to people of every age. Such is this one. Tightly written the character and plot develop right away, the humour is also quite amusing this story takes a little thinking on what it actually means

    Being a big fan of the Disney version of Alice in Wonderland I had high expectations when I picked up this book but I was surprisingly disappointed. I found Alice to be quite the little annoyance. Much more 'childish' than I expected. I also found myself bored of the novel half way through.I understand this is a children's story but the writing was not as I had expected from a novel that is considered a classic. The concept of the story is brilliant beyond words and has the greatest potential to be amazing and yet the writing was flat and at times awkward to read.This is the first novel-turned-movie, that I actually prefer the movie over the actual novel.

    Only 2 chapters in and I'm already loving it. I can't believe it took me all these years (I'm now 39) to read this. I know the story, of course, I believe from the Disney movie, but the book is delightful. I find myself chuckling at least once a paragraph. It's just silly!

    I so love this book! I first read it in eighth grade, and I've read it several times since, both on my own and to my children. This was my first time listening to this audio edition. You really can't go wrong with Jim Dale. Even my 4yo and (nearly) 9yo get excited when they find out Dale is narrating one of the audio books we've picked up from the library.

    This classic children's book is a timeless tale that captures children's imagination. This book can be used to introduce upper elementary students to math concepts such as graphing and beginning geometry. Using the characters in the book which are depicted as a deck of cards, children can explore laws of probability using a standard deck of playing cards.

    It's a game! It's a mathematical Illustration! It's a satire! It's well illustrated! It's a book that succeeds at practically every angle you come at it from!I loved for the illustrations when I was young, and I loved the Annotated Alice when older. Even though Ms. Liddell's photographs reveal a rather unpleasant looking young person, I'm happy with the written Alice whenever I open it.I feel it should be read by everyone, and it's riddles explored, both the staed ones and the implicit problems.It was originally published in 1865.

    The most over-rated book of all time in my opinion - in the face of stiff opposition from Pilgrim's Progress and Catcher in the Rye, to name but a few. I was both bored and disturbed by the claustophobic and nightmarish nonsensity of this messy fever dream of ghastly characters. The mad hatter, that terrible queen, all those odd substances saying eat me and drink me, then swimming through the sea of dormouse tears - most off-putting. Mind you, that might have been 'Through the Looking Glass', possibly the only book I hated even more than Wonderland.

    I don't feel like the modern illustration fits with the classic work for some reason. Otherwise the images are beautifully done.

    Summary: A little girl by the name of Alice follows a white rabbit down a hole where she ends up in another world. She has many many adventures in this world but eventually grows tired of it and wants to go home. After trial and error she finally gets there.Personal Reaction: I adore this book. It's one of my favorite books as well as movies. It is a crazy story but it really opens up a persons imagination. Classroom Extension Ideas:1. Have the kids draw their own types of Wonderlands.2. Use it to teach about being open to different things.

    One of the best loved classics of all time, and with good reason. In this fantasy, Alice goes through a rabbit hole and finds herself in a world of wonders. In spite of the wonderful nature of the place, much is also frightening, which makes this an accurate representation of the perils and pitfalls of childhood (and adulthood, too, it might be said). Charming and engaging, this is one for the ages.

    I'm loving my new Kindle. Not only is it fun to read books on it but Amazon has a bunch of free books, including Alice in Wonderland. I'm not sure that I've read "Alice" so I decided to give it a go.It is a really good book. The action starts on the very first page when Alice falls asleep and follows the rabbit down the hole. It is a fast paced book with all sorts of twists and turns.After I got into it I realized that I had read it or had it read to me a long time ago because I remember a lot of stuff that bothered me. How Alice grows and shrinks. She grows so much at one point that she has to put an arm out the window of a cottage and her foot up the chimney. I found that very very claustrophobic and disturbing as a kid and it still weirds me out.The other thing that bothered me as a kid was the nonsense spoke by the King and Queen and the judge and many of the other characters. That bothered me also. But hey, after years of listening to Hillary and Bill Clinton, George Bush, Sarah Palin, and Glenn Beck I am much better at dealing with nonsensical language than what I was as a child.What really struck me about the book is Alice progressing from being a victim where she just lets stuff happen to her to where at the last she is controlling events in Wonderland. She learns how to control just how big or small she needs to be by eating on the left or right side of the mushroom and she goes from taking everybody's crap to where she tells everybody off. I thought that is very cool.

    OK, I'm not going to be doing a review of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, as I did a rather lengthy one last year, but I do want to talk about the illustrations in this new edition. I'm a sucker for picking up multiple copies of a book that I like if there are new illustrations or something in the book that catches my interest (for instance, this is my third edition of Alice that I own, and I have 6 editions of A Christmas Carol - just to change it up a little, I try to read a different edition each time I re-read these).Of course, with the new Tim Burton film, Alice in Wonderland coming out in just a few short weeks, it seems that Alice is everywhere I look these days, and imagine my surprise when a friend pointed this edition out to me yesterday at B&N. I am a real stickler for the original Sir John Tenniel illustrations for Alice, but I have to say that Camille Rose Garcia's illustrations are just so unique and original that I couldn't pass the book up. These are very much a modern day Alice - Garcia kept the feel of being in a dream intact, but brought them to vibrant, technicolored life. To be honest, these illustrations look like they could have been pulled right out of Tim Burton's head - they have that same creepy yet beautiful look and feel that I find so mesmerizing about Burton's films. Garcia's illustrations are a little off-kilter and her characters look a little crazed and everytings seems just a little out of proportion (even for poor Alice, who always has trouble keeping to just the right size) and yet it all comes together to create a wholly refreshing new look for the cast of the story. We even get a few glimpses of scenes that weren't illustrated in the original, such as the actual Lobster Quadrille, not just the Mock Turtle and Gryphon's demonstration. I'm hopeful we'll get to see her take on Through the Looking Glass in the near future.

    OK, so maybe I haven't taken enough drugs in my life, but this book was a bit much for me. I enjoyed some of the story, and the wordplay was amusing in parts, but I have a hard time figuring out who this book is meant for. I don't think it's a very good children's story as they won't understand most of what's happening, especially as it pertains to the Mad Hatter and March Hare. I don't think it's a very good story for adults either, as it is fairly simple and doesn't have much of a plot or any character development to speak of. It's fun, but that's about it. This is one of the few books that I've ever felt made a better movie. And whether it's the Disney version, or the one with Johnny Depp, I think both were superior to the book. JMHO.

    Summary: Classic storytale of Alice as she travels through Wonderland and has great adventures. This story is of a little girl who is bored and falls asleep only to dream of following a rabbit down his hole and into a magical world of make-believe. Review: This story is a fairy tale and has all the classic marks of one: talking animals, the rules of science and nature being bendable if not all together breakable, and all of her adventure happening during a dream. The particular book I own has 42 wonderful ink illustrations by John Tenniel. It is the oldest book I own and I believe the story is still very relevant in children's literature. The best part of my book is the inscription: "Happy Christmas - To Little Hattie, December 25th, 1895. From Mrs. Flora Feige".
