Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll


Carroll, Lewis Alice in Wonderland, illustrated by Rodney Matthews. 92 p. (Does NOT include Through The Looking Glass). Templar (Candlewick, 2009. $24.99. Matthews has added beautiful full-color illustrations and many quirky black and white pictures to this edition of the first half of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. The full-color illustrations are a treat to gaze on and the book comes in a sturdy slipcase with embedded jewels. I just wish it was both halves of the story. I think right now I prefer Alison Joy’s illustrated version as a gift for adults and Helen Oxenbury’s for a child. OPTIONAL. Cindy, Library-Teacher.
