'Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.'

Originally published in 1865, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is a masterclass in the fantasy genre and remains one of the best-known works of Victorian literature, having been translated into 174 languages and adapted numerous times for the screen, stage and radio.

A thrilling feat of imagination, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland sees our young heroine, Alice, transported to a fantastical realm filled with peculiar creatures and nonsensical rules. As Alice attempts to find her way back home, she is drawn into conversation by the talking Cheshire Cat, partakes in a mad tea party with Hatter and encounters the tempestuous Queen of Hearts who threatens to have off with her head. A hugely entertaining blend of wordplay, satire and dream-like adventures, Carroll's iconic children's novel playfully challenges concepts such as reason, identity and what it means to grow up.
