Nothing's more magical than going down the rabbit hole and through the looking glass with Alice. There, in worlds unlike any other ever created, conventional logic is turned upside down and wrong-way round to enchanting effect. Children will love reading Carroll's many humorous nonsense verses and meeting such unforgettable characters as the Mad Hatter, the Knave of Hearts who steals some tarts and the grinning Cheshire Cat (in "Alice in Wonderland") and Tweedledee, Tweedledum, Humpty Dumpty and the Jabberwocky (in "Through the Looking Glass").
