Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through The Looking

Two of the most quoted books in English children's literature sit together in this volume: Lewis Carroll's Wonderland story and its sequel beyond the looking-glass. Alice falls, walks and argues her way through worlds governed by riddles, chess moves and grammatical jokes, meeting creatures whose logic is both absurd and oddly consistent. Carroll wrote for children but layered in wordplay, parody and mathematical humour that adults keep returning to, and the Penguin Classics edition presents both texts with notes for readers who want the references explained. What to expect: • Both Alice books collected in a single volume • Wordplay, nonsense verse and puzzles that work on two levels • Notes explaining Victorian references and hidden jokes • Equal appeal as a family read-aloud and as a set text A good choice for young readers with adult company, literature students and anyone rebuilding a childhood shelf, available at Boipoka.
