Alices In Wonderland: Part 35

As she stands there a great procession of the whole court comes down the pathe. The three gardeners throw themselves flat upon the ground.

This illustration, by Andrew Hopgood, is from a rather odd edition from Budget Books, Victoria. It's odd because it's been rewritten by Archie Oliver. It hasn't been abridged for a lower age or translated into a new language, it's just been rewritten. Though I'm not convinced that there is anything to be gained by such a process, the illustrations are quite interesting.
