Alice's Adventures in Wonderland review

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll

Genre: Children's fiction

^{Check out: reading challenge 2010
& *Phoenix* Books 2010}



This book is full of crazy adventures and crazy characters. There are the more familiar characters: the White Rabbit, the Mad Hatter, and less known characters: the Duchess, Mock Turtle, the King of Hearts.

Alice sees a rabbit in a waistcoat who mutters he's late. Why is he late? Where is he going? Alice decides she wants to follow the rabbit which begins her crazy adventure. After being completely confused by many, many people, she finally finds that it was all a dream.

I greatly enjoyed its ridding craziness. It's written a fun, almost teasing, style, which makes me want to smile. (There's also some rhyming, too.) The weirdness may be a little much for some people to handle, but I would recommend this as a fun read.


"Why is a raven like a writing desk?" "I haven't the slightest idea."

"We're all mad here."
