Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Other Stories - Lewis Carroll(Barnes & Noble Leatherbound Classic Collection) 

‘Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, “and what is the use of a book,” thought Alice, “without pictures or conversations?”’
So begins the tale of Alice, following a curious White Rabbit down a rabbit-hole and falling into Wonderland. A fantastical place, where nothing is quite as it seems: animals talk, nonsensical characters confuse, Mad Hatter's throw tea parties and the Queen plays croquet. Alice's attempts to find her way home become increasingly bizarre, infuriating and amazing in turn.

Alice's Adventures In Wonderland has been one of my favourite books and Disney Films, both the original and the live action remake, for a long time. I have quite a few copies of Alice's Adventures In Wonderland and Through The Looking Glass but this is one I had seen and hoped to buy for over a year. I eventually bought it using Christmas money early this year and I love it. It has a lot of other stories and poems in and feels like a true classic.
