LEWIS CARROLL
Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
ALICE’S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND
‘We’re all mad here, you know,’ said the Cheshire Cat. ‘I’m mad. You’re mad.’
‘How do you know that I’m mad?’ said Alice.
‘Of course you’re mad,’ said the Cheshire Cat. ‘Only mad people come here.’
This is the story of Alice’s dream, one hot summer day long ago. A dream of Wonderland, where the White Rabbit wears gloves and the Caterpillar smokes a pipe … where the Mad Hatter is always having tea with the March Hare, and where the Queen of Hearts wants to cut off everyone’s head …
It’s all very strange, but then, anything can happen in a dream world.
