Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the river bank, and of having nothing to do...when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran by her. Alice did not think it so very strange to hear the Rabbit say to itself, "Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!" But when the Rabbit actually took a watch out of its waistcoat pocket and then hurried on, she started to wonder! Running after the strange fellow, she was just in time to see it pop down a large rabbit-hole. Down jumped Alice after it (never considering how in the world she was to get out again) and she tumbled into a curious world inhabited by the Mad Hatter, the Ugly Duchess, the Mock Turtle, the Cheshire Cat, and more…

With his marvelous sense of the absurd, Lewis Carroll’s whimsical, fantastical tale delighted children and adults when it was first published in 1865 and has since become a treasured classic of literature.

Editorial Reviews

Review

“This year, that curious, hallucinating heroine Alice, friend of Cheshire cats and untimely rabbits, is turning 150 years old…And what a perfect match, in tone and whimsy, found in Rifle Paper Co.’s Anna Bond.”—Vanity Fair

“Publishers are having a creative field day with stunningly beautiful new covers—and lovely insides, too, in the case of Puffin’s whimsicalAlice’s Adventures in Wonderland, illustrated by Rifle Paper Co.’s Anna Bond.”—Entertainment Weekly

“Chic…The pretty face of Anna Bond’s Alice looks continually astonished, and even in the scene where her neck grows freakishly serpentine, the heroine remains comely. Elegant and unthreatening, Ms. Bond’s pictures abound with so many flowers and curling vines that Wonderland seems a much nicer place than perhaps we remembered.”—Wall Street Journal

“150 years after Alice in Wonderland was published, Anna Bond, the creative director of stationer Rifle Paper Co., draws a whole new tea party in this deluxe hardcover edition.”—New York Magazine’s The Cut

“In this beautiful, oversized, hardcover anniversary edition—with the complete, unabridged text—readers will fall in love all over again with the classic tale of the girl who fell down the rabbit hole. Illustrator Anna Bond, of gift and stationery brand Rifle Paper Co., applies her stylish, whimsical touch and distinctive color palette to Alice and her friends, from the inviting jacket and the case-cover art beneath it to the original endpapers and the superb full-color interior illustrations, large and small.” —Shelf Awareness

“This year marks the 150th anniversary of Lewis Carroll’s beloved classic, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Commemorate the occasion with a deluxe hardcover edition of the tale from Puffin Books, available Oct. 27. The new book is re-illustrated with vibrant, whimsical designs by Anna Bond of Rifle Paper Co., for a one-of-a-kind look at Alice’s imaginative journey.”—American Profile

My original purchase of Kindle's "Alice in Wonderland" a few years ago, the cover shown in the store was exactly like the book I had as a child, along with the same original illustrations. Then I discovered that after I had it in my library for a while, it wasn't what I bought! It was inexpensive, so I looked again in the store...guess what? You can't judge a book by it's cover. Even Amazon can't do it! This review will turn up, as others I've read for any book with the same title, or a variation...Alice's Adventure in Wonderland or "Adventures" , Alice in Wonderland, The Complete Adventures of Alice in Wonderland!!!!!! Egad! I've got 3 or 4 different editions, and can't seem to move to the trash, delete, dip in pieces AAUGH!!!

Trapped in dreams. (AmazonClassics Edition)

Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2019

Verified Purchase

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.

Salvador Dalí chasing The Girl With The Rope

Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2017

Verified Purchase

It is really beautiful edition printed on a high quality paper for any admirer of Alice adventures and/or Dali's art. His paintings illustrate each chapter and are printed on the third page from the beginning of each chapter. It is so thrilling to look at each picture during reading the chapter and trying to figure what and why Dali decided to paint.

Dali's art is not everything what this edition has to offer. There are two pieces of introduction which I found very interesting. First one is written by Mark Burstain explaining why the surrealists were so interested in Carroll book and the second one of Thomas Banchoff who actually met with Dali many times and provided us with some of stories about the genius. Both of them helped me better understand the madness of Dali, or as Carroll and the surrealists preferred to address: the wisdom.

We're all mad here

The Cheshire Cat. Down the rabbit hole. Mad hatter. Curiouser and curiouser. OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!

Even if you have never read "Alice in Wonderland," some part of its charmingly nonsensical story has probably slipped into your head over the years. Lewis Carroll's classic fantasy tale is a dreamlike adventure that breezily eschews plot, character development and any kind of logic... and between his cleverly nonsensical writing ("I daresay it's a French mouse, come over with William the Conqueror") and surrealist adventures, it is absolutely perfect that way. How many books can say that?

A bored young girl named Alice is by a riverbank when a White Rabbit runs by, fretting, "Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be late!" and checking the watch from his waistcoat. Unsurprisingly, Alice pursues the rabbit down a rabbit-hole... and ends up floating down a deep tunnel to a strange place full of locked doors. There's also a cake and a little bottle with labels instructing you to eat or drink them, which cause Alice to either shrink or grow exponentially.

As she continues pursuing the rabbit (who seems to think she's someone named Mary Ann), Alice quickly discovers that Wonderland is a place where logic and reason have very, very little influence -- talking animals in a Caucus-race, a hookah-smoking Caterpillar, even more bizarre growth potions, a grinning cat, the Duchess and her indestructible pig-baby, eternal tea-time with the March Hare and the Mad Hatter (plus the Dormouse), and finally the court of the Queen and King of Hearts.

"Alice in Wonderland" is one of those rare books that actually is more enjoyable and readable because it's pure nonsense, without more than a shred of plot or even proper narrative structure. The entire story is essentially Alice wandering from one wacky scenario to another in Wonderland, meeting more violently weird people with every stop and finding herself entangled in all sorts of surreal situations. It doesn't really lead anywhere, or come from anywhere.

And yet, this works perfectly -- it's all about nonsense, and a coherent plot or developed characters would get in the way of that. Never has such a perfect depiction of a weird dream been turned into fiction, especially since Alice regards everything that happens with a sort of perplexed detachment. Even though NOTHING in Wonderland makes sense (vanishing cats, talking animals, arguing playing-cards painting roses, the Hatter convinced that it is six o'clock all day every day), she addresses everything with a sense of bemused internal logic ("I've had nothing yet, so I can't take more").

And Carroll festoons this wacky little tale with puns ("We called his Tortoise because he taught us"), odd snatches of mutilated poetry ("Twinkle, twinkle, little bat/how I wonder what you're at") and tangled snarls of eccentric logic that only works if you're technically insane (so... flamingoes are like mustard?). This keeps the plotless story as sparkling and swift-moving as a mountain stream laced with LSD, so the mind never has a chance to get bored by Alice simply wandering around, growing and shrinking, and engaged in a string of conversations with loopy people.

"Alice in Wonderland" is a mad, mad, mad, mad experience -- and between Carroll's sparkling dialogue and enchantingly surreal story, it's also a lot of fun. Never a dull moment... except the wait to read "Through the Looking Glass."

A must read for everyone

I am a fan of Alice and her adventures. Reading about them in my eightieth year reignites my imagination and the child within. I know some people do not take to the fantasy world she inhabits, but everyone, if adult, should read 'Alice in Wonderland' to test themselves, and 'Alice through the Looking Glass' awaits if the the fire is lit. One of the joys of life is to read 'Alice in Wonderland' to a child and discuss it together, preferably before they get to see any of the modern film versions.

Always Great Fun

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 26, 2020

Verified Purchase

As so many reviews on this site end up getting cross-posted I should stress that this review is for the Amazon Classics Edition of this book, which has the original illustrations, with those wonderful pictures by John Tenniel, and which have influenced all other illustrators of the book since. First published in 1865 of course Lewis Carroll was the pseudonym of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, who along with his novels and poems also wrote mathematical books, and invented and created things.

Still immensely popular and inspiring many others in the arts (not only with novelists) so this is quite possibly the world’s most famous children’s book and is always something worth introducing the younger members of your family to. Of course though, this book is still great for us older readers, as it not only brings back a piece of nostalgia but also, we can perhaps appreciate even more so the word games and other puns here. Because over the years there have been a number of other illustrators doing the artwork for different editions of this, and because our concerns and priorities have also changed so at times it is perhaps easy to miss the more symbolic things here, which show us a parody of life in the Victorian era. As the author was a mathematician so we can see that he alludes to this in places where he is scathing of the new mathematics that were starting to appear, and which would ultimately lead to new advances such as eventually quantum physics.

And so we read of here when Alice first went down the rabbit hole following the white rabbit who is late for an appointment. Just the beginning of her weird and wonderful adventure where we meet the Mad Hatter, the Red Queen, the Cheshire Cat and many other characters. Always entertaining and definitely fun this is a book that was a massive hit when it first came out, has never been out of print, and is an essential novel for any family library. To be honest there are not many books that you read as a child and can still remember many years later, showing the skill of the author here, as well as incorporating artwork, after all we are told to just look at the picture if we do not know what a gryphon is.

Why is a raven like a writing-desk?

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 22, 2020

Verified Purchase

Yes, I hold up my hand and admit that I'm one of those who has seen the 1951 animated Disney motion picture after having been treated to it (on VHS, no less) for one of my birthdays as a child, and now having read the first part of its source material, Disney did a fantastic job of adapting this "nonsense" to the big screen.

I do say "nonsense" kindly of course. Does the story make sense? No, not at all, but that's the idea! I've worked with children who were given free rein to write stories and their ideas were usually bonkers and all over the place. That's what made this fun, if perhaps a little frustrating for adult readers in that it doesn't follow a logical sequence of beginning, middle and end. I bet Lewis Carroll had great fun writing it, however.

I'd thoroughly recommend the audio book version narrated by Miriam Margolyes, who does a smashing job of narrating it and bringing Carroll's nonsensical characters to life.

Time to read: 2 hours
Time to explain to child what the hell is happening: 3 hours

While I appreciate the book was written in a different time, and there are some wonderful passages, on the whole the book is just a lot of old nonsense. Which I think was the point. It was an exercise in frippery, of making something nonsensical.

The adaptations of the book do an excellent job of turning this confused half-story into something enjoyable. My daughter enjoyed the fact that she was reading it/having it read to her, but really wasn't grasping much of what was going on.

No illustrations and audio link doesn't work

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 6, 2016

Verified Purchase

I was interested in this edition, solely for the Dali illustrations. I have a couple of other Alice editions with Tenniel and Rackham artwork, but hadn't seen one with Dali pictures. So it was a huge disappointment to find there are no illustrations. Zilch, zero, nada. Just pages of text, which I already have, so this adds nothing and I've now deleted. There was no working audio link as advertised either.
