When Alice follows the White Rabbit down a rabbit hole, she finds herself in an enchanted world, filled with creatures like the Mad Hatter, the disappearing Cheshire Cat, and the Queen of Hearts. Alice quickly finds out that nothing is as it seems in the wild world of Wonderland.
Lewis Carroll, born Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (1832-1898) is best known for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, in addition to its sequel Through the Looking-Glass. He was a mathematician, deacon, and photographer in addition to being a writer.
“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 whimsical Alice’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
