When Alice follows a White Rabbit down a rabbit hole, she discovers an extraordinary new world where everything works quite differently. There are strange potions that make you shrink — or expand to giant size: some very odd tea parties; gardeners who paint the roses; and a cat who disappears, leaving behind its grin. She meets a range of eccentric characters, including the Mad Hatter. the March Hare, the sleepy Dormouse, Tweedle Dum and Tweedie Dee and, of course, the croquet-playing Duchess.
Just as soon as Alice leams the rules of each crazy situation, they seem to change again. How can she get back to her own world? And will she ever catch up with the White Rabbit? Lewis Carroll's mad extravaganza is a pure joy from start to finish.
