In Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland [1865], young Alice falls down a rabbit hole into an underground fantasy world inhabited by unforgettable, anthropomorphic characters: the White Rabbit, the hookah-smoking Caterpillar, the Mad Hatter, the grinning Cheshire Cat, the pompous Queen of Hearts. With great inventiveness, Carroll plays clever and joyful games with the logic and vibrant characters of his story, making it one of the most essential, beloved and influential works of English literature.
This edition of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland also includes its equally imaginative sequel, Through the Looking-Glass [1872]. Both works feature the original illustrations by John Tenniel.

LEWIS CARROLL, the pseudonym for Charles Lutwidge Dodgson - born in 1832 in Daresbury, Cheshire, and died in 1898 in Guildford, Surrey - was a British author, mathematician, and logician.
