Alice editions come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. This one, from Parragon, is a hardback with nice glossy illustrations by Jenny Press and a retold version of the story by Stephanie Laslett and it measures approximately three inches by four. The illustrations, while not among my particular favourites are all very bright and colourful and well done.
The caucus race dries everyone off but unfortunately Alice then attempts to engage the various animals and birds in conversation and her frequent references to her cat, Dinah, scare all of them ito running away. As she stands there all alone the White Rabbit appears again and mistakes her for his maid. He tells her to go to his house to get him some new gloves and a new fan.
