This is the leather bound book from Barnes and Noble and I would say skip it just get the regular book for Alice. This particular book include a lot of Lewis Carroll's short stories or poems. At the time I did not realize this even though it says it on the cover. (yea I know) I liked the book but once again its one of those books that jumps all over the place. It was written for children but the child in this book is very smart for what is supposed to be a 5-7 year old girl. Not the point, sorry. The Disney film has nothing on the book I will say that. You don't get the true chaoticness of this story from the movie. There is a lot of poetry in this story, most of which someone in their mid-twenties has not heard of. The only reason I knew some of this was because a very accurate Alice in Wonderland show I watched as a child with lloootttsss of big names for the time like Ringo Starr and Carol Channing singing and dancing around in costumes. The book of course elaborates more on explanations of situations and seems to draw a better picture of what wonderland really seems to be like to a child. I find that even now I am having trouble finishing this review, it has taken me a week so it may take you a while to get through the actual book. I don't know how to do the book justice in this situation. Its hard to explain a story with no plot lol.
Good for bed time stories for your kids
