A newly illustrated edition of this classic tale by one of Australia's greatest children's book illustrators.

On an ordinary summer's afternoon, Alice tumbles down a hole and an extraordinary adventure begins. In a strange world with even stranger characters, she meets a rabbit with a pocket watch, joins a Mad Hatter's Tea Party, and plays croquet with the Queen! Lost in this fantasy land, Alice finds herself growing more and more curious by the minute...With a wonderfully inspiring introduction by Chris Riddell, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" is one of the twelve brilliant classic stories being relaunched in "Puffin Classics" in March 2008.

When Alice steps through the looking-glass, she enters a very strange world of chess pieces and nursery rhyme characters such as Humpty Dumpty, Tweedledee and Tweedledum and the angry Red Queen. Nothing is what it seems and, in fact, through the looking-glass, everything is distorted.

These extraordinary stories have remained popular for more than 130 years and have entertained generations of young and adult readers alike. This beautiful collector's edition is wonderfully brought to life by the original illustrations of the celebrated artist Sir John Tenniel.
