The book I recieved looks nothing like the picture, in fact it came with dried food on the pages causing the pages to rip as you try to turn the pages, water stains on the entire cover, and an awful moldy odor.

Imagination is the best part of being a child. Lewis Carroll is an amazing story teller with the best of imaginations. This is a must read for adults and kids of all ages. Alice in wonderland is one of my favorite childhood stories.

Understandably a Classic, But Not Very Applicable for Today's Children

Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2023

Verified Purchase

Although a bit fantastical and not as applicable today as it was then, I think this is still an overall good book to read and certainly a fun study of its era. Some people have tried to suggest that it was Alice that was on drugs that caused the dream, but with the way the older sister described Alice at the end and especially how Alice described the drug induced characters, I believe she was clean and the story was meant to be a commentary on how nonsensical drug users can be. Much of the book is a commentary on English society of the 1860's. It is clever but just alien enough in nature to us today to not be applicable anymore.

Strange Writing

Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2023

Book felt very unorganized, and hard to follow. No clear story line, and everything just seemed really random, almost like it was written by a child.

Beautiful graphics

This is for people who want pictures that are not your typical children’s book graphics. Being an adult many of the Alice editions cater to only children. For someone wanting to read it as an adult, it is spot on. I love the slightly dark gothicky theme. Everyone needs this in their book collection!

Trapped in dreams. (AmazonClassics Edition)

Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2019

Multiplicity of editions can be frustrating if you want to spend correctly just once. The AmazonClassics edition is a very good edition, almost perfect, it has X-Ray, the original illustrations in a good size, modern typography and a very polished formatting; except one part: there is a beautiful poem/tale, "The Mouse's Tale", in which a mishearing makes Alice to blend tail with tale and the story appears typographically in a quite beautiful shape of a tail, sinuously getting narrower til being as thick as an individual letter. Unfortunately in the AmazonClassics Edition the shape is rather like a sinuous river, it losses its meaning. I checked other kindle edition I have, "Alice in Wonderland: The Complete Collection" edition by Maplewood Books, the illustrations are a bit less clear (at least that was I felt), the formatting, although good, it's not as exemplar as the AmazonClassics Edition but to my tranquility "The Mouse's Tale" is formatted faithful to the original, so I will stick to that complete edition and I won't get the second book, "Through the Looking-Glass," in the AmazonClassics Edition, for fear that it will not express the intentions of the author.

Peculiar book. Although built of meaningful blocks of events, as a group they are surreal; if there exists a meaning, is meant for only an initiated in the reasons of the story. For what I read it could be for the amusement of a little girl friend of Lewis Carroll. I love it very much. Weird and all, inscrutable and unfathomable as it is to me at the same time it is exciting and mind blowing. Alice falls into another world, one that changes like a dream but whereas we as actors of our dreams change along them. Instead Alice lives them quite consciously, as one of those old memories of strange events or creatures you saw, in which you are not that sure if it actually happened or, being that fantastic, it was a reverie feed by being in an unfamiliar place.

The booklet I've read, 9780749854546, contained actually two stories, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, which is this Kindle book and Through the Looking-Glass, which can be found here . In the first story, we get all the anecdotes I remembered from watching the Japanese anime adaptation in my youth. Thus we have here the White Rabbit who is always too late, the "Eat me", "Drink me" episode, the Caterpillar smoking a hookah, the disappearing Cheshire Cat, the tea time with the Hatter (he's indeed never referred as Mad Hatter, even though its stated that he is mad) and the March Hare and the playing croquet with the Queen of Hearts and her court, who were all cards. Plus, we have here some other stories that I didn't know. I plan to go back to the animation and watch the whole lot. I'm curious in how much they stayed true to the whole story. And the longer I was reading, the more I was wondering what I was actually reading, until in the end it is revealed to be all just in Alice's dream.
.
In Through the Looking Glass then, we then have Alice again dreaming. This time, she is a pawn in a giant chess game, even though the rules are somewhat strange. She tries to reach the end of the chess board to become queen, and on her way there, she meets all sorts of strange creatures, such as Tweedledum and Tweedledee and Humpty Dumpty. In the end, Alice arrives at the end, becomes queen, has a feast with the Red Queen and the White Queen and... awakes. And again, I was wondering what I was actually reading.

In the end, it was good to have actually read these two stories to understand where a lot of references and material for movies are coming from. But did I enjoy reading them? Not really. I actually had to force myself to finish reading them. Maybe I was just being already too old to enjoy these stories?

Down the Rabbit Hole of Hilarity: A Review of Alice in Wonderland

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 26, 2024

Verified Purchase

Let me start off by saying, this book is like nothing you've ever read before. Alice in Wonderland is a wild ride through a fantastical world that will leave you questioning your sanity in the best possible way.

As soon as I cracked open the pages of this book, I knew I was in for a treat. Alice, our curious and slightly befuddled protagonist, stumbles upon a rabbit hole that leads her to a world unlike anything she's ever seen. And let me tell you, the characters she encounters along the way are just as wacky and wonderful as she is.

From the perpetually late White Rabbit to the nonsensical Cheshire Cat, each character Alice meets in Wonderland is more outrageous than the last. And don't even get me started on the Mad Hatter and his never-ending tea party. I mean, who knew there were so many ways to ruin a perfectly good cup of tea?

But beyond the absurdity and chaos of Wonderland, there's a certain wisdom hidden within the pages of this book. As Alice navigates through the topsy-turvy world she finds herself in, she learns valuable lessons about growing up, taking risks, and staying true to herself. And let's be real, who among us couldn't use a little reminder about the importance of staying true to our weird and wonderful selves?

I laughed out loud more times than I can count while reading Alice in Wonderland. The witty banter and clever wordplay had me in stitches, and I found myself quoting the book to anyone who would listen. And trust me, there's nothing quite like watching someone's face light up when you tell them that "We're all mad here."

In conclusion, Alice in Wonderland is a literary masterpiece that will make you laugh, make you think, and make you appreciate the madness of the world around you. So do yourself a favor and fall down the rabbit hole of hilarity with Alice. I promise you won't regret it.

Five out of five tea cups - highly recommended for anyone in need of a good chuckle and a healthy dose of whimsy in their life.
