Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There | Lewis Carroll
302 posts | 256 read | 5 reading | 46 to read
Part 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.

#Readingslump sidelined me again. Hopefully Alice and company gets me out of the doldrums.

The book was okay. Definitely not as good as the movies but still a classic.

Book 8!
Loved The first book but I didn‘t enjoy Looking Glass as much as I‘d hoped.
Very interesting read and sometimes a tad hard to understand/interpret😂
Still a beautiful classic!🐛🍄

Alice‘s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll is a modern fantasy book that was punished in 1997. This is a story about a young girl that had fallen down a rabbit hole and found a whole new world. She made some friends and gets in some sticky situations. This novel tells a magical story in which Alice finds an absurd world.

So I started reading this, to my youngest (4) at bed time, before Christmas and we finally finished it. Not entirely sure if she understood it all, it it was fun to read this to her.

My Barnes & Noble package came today! I feel like it shipped really quickly! I‘m still blown away by the amazing deal I got on these, I honestly wish I had bought more and squirreled them away as gifts for people! But selfishly, these are all for mine and the hubs collection. 😆 They‘re so pretty, so I apologize in advance for all the pictures I‘m going to post of them. ❤️📚❤️📚❤️📚❤️

My #friyayintro #selfie is from Monday when my lovely daughter was commended for science at school. She's a smart cookie! She's also named after the tagged book's titular character.

Fun fact: I am trying to find time to go back to school to become a mortician. It is very difficult to find time though, however I'm starting to think that's partially just an excuse at this point.

madamereadsalot1 @Trashcanman thanks! I'm 37, and she's not even my oldest! 😅 My oldest will be 19 in two weeks! I have 4 kiddos all together. My daughter in this picture is 12. And I also have a 9 & 7 year old! My ex and I started young.... 🤷 6y
Trashcanman @madamereadsalot1 well I bet you look like the 19 year olds sister. Best of luck in pursuing your goal, truly. 6y
madamereadsalot1 @Trashcanman he does look more like my sibling! Mainly because he's 6'5" and I'm 5'4"! ? He says he doesn't mind going places with me because people never assume I'm his mom and when they realize I am, they think he at least has a cool mom. Lol! And thanks! I just have to overcome literal and mentally conceived obstacles. The later are the hardest. 6y
StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego Daughter? I thought you were sisters or friends or something. I guess green hair is youthful? I love it btw, looks great. 💚 6y
madamereadsalot1 @StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego thanks! I tend to look a smidge younger than my 37 years, no matter what my hair color. 😆 I get it from my dad. He's in his 60's and still looks fabulous. 6y
gradcat I‘ve never seen that color of green for hair...I love it—where did you get it? 💚 6y
madamereadsalot1 @gradcat we use Joico for vivids at my job. It's their Kelly Green! 6y
Gezemice That hair color is magnificent. I love it. And you do look way too young to have a 19 year old! Amazing! 6y

2) Dark red ❤ brown 👎
3) Scrambled egg on toast
4) Yes 😊 Scrapbooking and Writing... mainly writing though 🤗
5) A pencil case stuffed with coloured pens and pencils, a notebook (Not sure if that counts as a book) and a spare book (for when I finish or get bored of the main one 😅)

I was not overly impressed with this book. I tried to figure out why it was considered a children's classic the entire time I was reading it. I won't be reading the rest of the books.

How awesome is this?! A friend of mine in England took this today. There are these big painted rabbits all over where she lives. I just had share this one! ❤️

Rachel.Rencher Those look just like the moose in Coeur d' Alene. About 10 years ago there was a contest and people painted really big moose statues to be auctioned off. They're all over the city now and are similar in style to the rabbit. 6y
