Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass

Nominated as one of Americas best-loved novels by PBSs The Great American ReadPart of Penguin''s beautiful hardback Clothbound Classics series, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, these delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design. ''I had sent my heroine straight down a rabbit-hole without the least idea what was to happen afterwards,'' wrote Dodgson, describing how Alice was conjured up one ''golden afternoon'' in 1862 to entertain his child-friend Alice Liddell. In the magical world of Wonderland and the back-to-front Looking-Glass kingdom, order is turned upside-down: a baby turns into a pig; time is abandoned at a tea-party; and a chaotic game of chess makes a 7-year-old a Queen.
