Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll

Join Alice for a trip down the rabbit hole in the delightful original version of Alice in Wonderland. What began as a story for three little girls on a boring boat ride, became one of the most famous and influential works of children's literature.
In Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, a bored little girl is sitting on a riverbank with her older sister when she sees a white rabbit, wearing a coat and pocket watch, talking to itself as it runs past. Alice follows the white rabbit down a rabbit hole and finds herself in situations that become "curious and curiouser." Alice meets a bizarre cast of characters in Wonderland, including the Mad Hatter, the Caterpillar, the Mock Turtle and the King and Queen of Hearts.
