Better known by his pseudonym, Lewis Caroll, the author masterfully tells the story of a little girl named Alice, who falls through a rabbit hole into a fantasy world populated by very peculiar creatures. This story is followed with her re-entry (about six months later) into this fantastical universe, this time by climbing through a mirror into the world that she can see beyond it. This book is beautifully illustrated by Blanche McManus (1869 - 1935), an American writer and artist, famed for her delicate watercolours and sinuous lines. She brings Caroll's unique form of 'literary nonsense' to life, superbly bringing about a balance between the written word and the artists imagination. Pook Press celebrates the great 'Golden Age of llustration' in children's literature - a period of unparalleled excellence in book illustration. We publish rare and vintage Golden Age illustrated books, in high-quality colour editions, so that the masterful artwork and story-telling can continue to delight.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Pook Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50337898955026,"sku":"9781473335028","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_65ff8f1d-0e26-4857-accf-1dfe587d32f0.jpg?v=1727972138","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/alices-adventures-in-wonderland-and-through-the-looking-glass-with-sixteen-full-page-illustrations-by-blanche-mcmanus-9781473335028","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
