"According to the Oxford dictionary, the definition of fantasy is the product of imagining the impossible or improbable things.The two books involving Alice, and the fantasy is clearly used because Alice creates a fantasy in your dreams. During the stories you can see the relationship between fantasy and the real world in the characters as examples the Queen of Hearts in the real world would be a boring teacher or a annoying boss, the rabbit would be an adult who only thinks about the job and the Cheshire cat would be a child for his smile and can do whatever he wants. We can see that the book mentions the growth, as Alice is a girl who is growing up, the fantasy world shows how people behave in each age, as the child would be the cat, the rabbit would be the adult and mock turtle would be a old man but alice behaves like an adult when she becomes tall after eating a piece of mushroom, a scene which represents this is when she puts her authority against the Queen of Hearts in the judgment.But has two remarkable characters who indicate that Alice is already the time to grow up, the first is the rabbit who acts with responsibly and the second is the caterpillar that some day will turn a butterfly.We notice that the work of Lewis Carrol in real world has had some influence in the book as mathematician and poet because he put several poems in the books. In conclusion this book is for all ages but the mature person will understand the mysteries that the book hides because when a child reads this book they will not pay attention to details that are difficult to be perceived then in need an attentive reading."

    " A wonderfully bizarre continuation of Alice's adventures (although it is not a follow up and no mention is given of her Wonderland journey throughout the book). Reminds us of what it is to imagine the world through childs eyes once more. "

    " Reading the Complete Lewis Carroll right now, and was surprised to discover that this sequel is by far the superior of the Alice books. It's clever and odd and disturbing, and made me giggle on the subway. I only wish I had a better understanding of the game of chess, since the entire book is structured around a metaphysical chess game. "

    " I didn't expect much of this book, since I hated the Disney movie (way too much happens in a very short time). I wanted to read it anyway, just because it's one of the most famous children's classics. I was pleasantly surprised. It's a very well-written story, very British, and it's easy to immerse yourself in the wonderland Alice finds herself in. I especially loved the little comments Alice keeps making in her head - very funny! I am now going to continue with 'Through the Looking Glass'. "

    " "Alice in Wonderland," by Lewis Carroll, is a story told that will let children feeling happy and adventurous. The story begins with Alice sitting by her cat, Dinah, and insisting that one day she would in fact run away to a far away place. With Carroll's poetic, yet strange word choice, his flowing sentences, and his creation of this mysterious land, a child cannot put the book down in fear of missing out on the next big event. The book is a very fast read, and several illustrations are sketched in black and white to guide the child in making a mental image. The characters are all very silly and quirky, such as the March Hare and the Mock Turtle, and Alice just cannot put them in line. Throughout the story she becomes very frustrated with the behavior of these awful creatures, and frequently reminds them to use their manners. An evil which even captures the poor girl, and puts her on trial in front of an entire courthouse of "people." In the midst of a commotion in the courthouse, Alice wakes up right back where she started; in her grassy bed outside of her nicely decorated Victorian house. I would not recommend this book to read to class just because of the fact that it doesn't really have a great plot setting. The story is great within itself, but it would be a little bit confusing to teach "beginning, middle, and end" with this type of book, and I feel that there are better choices to use for elementary language arts or english lessons. If wanting to use, I would use it with 4h or 5th grade students "

    " The edition I read was actually an online version with the same illustrations and everything. It is a rather fun book, and is certainly far deeper than the "children's book" that it is depicted to be on its surface. I wouldn't say I loved it, but it was certainly worth finally reading the book behind a story I have heard so much about. The language twists alone made it well worth it, as there is definitely a lot of creativity there. "

    " A rare case in which the sequel is even better than the original, in Through the Looking-Glass we learn about life being a vast game of chess, what bread-and-butterflies eat, and what an un-birthday is. Sadly, the book leads us to the realization that it's never jam today, but, having learned how to deal with royalty, we also learn how to be royalty. "

    " Alice's adventures are a testament to a child's imagination. Carroll's stories are cute and enjoyable, but further analysis is possible re: motifs of dreams vs. reality, rabbits, fish, and the importance of other animals and their journeys throughout the two stories. "

    " so i read this and Alice in Wonderland in preparation for Alice in Zombie-land (i think its called. I wanted some frame of reference when reading that one...these two were really weird, and irritating. They were what they set out to be though, two books about little girls dreams, very nonsensical.

About the Authors

Lewis Carroll was the pen name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (1832–1898), English author, mathematician, and photographer. One of eleven children of a scholarly country parson, he studied mathematics at Oxford, obtained a university post, and then was ordained as a deacon but found true success with his masterpiece, Alice’s Adventures Under Ground, now known as Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, which originated as a story told to a young friend, Alice Liddell, during a boating trip on the Thames. Among his other works are Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There, The Hunting of the Snark, and Jabberwocky.
