Description

Walker Illustrated Classics is a wonderful series that brings together some of the best loved stories ever told, illustrated by some of today's finest artists.

For over a hundred years, Alice in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll's classic story of logic and lunacy has delighted young and old alike. More abundantly illustrated than previous editions, this award-winning interpretation is full of warmth and humour. The whole approach is contemporary and accessible - Alice herself is a child of today – casually dressed, personable, spirited. In Helen Oxenbury's hands, the topsy-turvy world of Wonderland is a wondrous place indeed!
