Alice in Wonderland

Description

Alice was just an ordinary girl - imaginative and curious and thirsting for adventure. She was an ordinary girl, that is, until she found herself instantly transported to a place that was anything but ordinary. After diving down a rabbit hole, young Alice encounters a magical world ruled by a vicious Queen. It is a world where anything can happen; a world filled with a talking caterpillar, a puppy as big as a house, and a Cheshire cat that can disappear and reappear in the blink of an eye. Are these colourful characters real? And if so, how will Alice ever find her way back home? Beloved for more than a century, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is widely viewed as Lewis Carroll's masterpiece; a fantastic journey that will never be forgotten. AGES: 5 plus SELLING POINTS: .

Rene Cloke was born in Plymouth, England in 1904. During World War II, she worked for the War Office as a tracer, producing maps from photographs for the Royal Air Force, but she spent the rest of her life illustrating greetings cards and children's books. Known for her depictions of fairies, sprites, pixies, and elves, a distinctive feature of Rene's style is the inclusion of faces in trees, which you'll see in many of her illustrations..
