Publisher's Synopsis
Book & slipcase. Most readers are probably unaware that Lewis Carroll (born Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, 1832-1898) originally wrote 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' for a single child -- Alice Pleasance Liddell; however, it quickly became a classic all over the world. Audiences ranging from children to the literary elite have always been delighted by this fantastic story, and today's use of many related literary expressions show just how deeply embedded this masterpiece has become in our modern society. Sir John Tenniel's funny and detailed illustrations, along with the richly stamped cover and slip case, provide a truly enchanting and delicate miniature book.
