Alice in Wonderland

After wandering off from an afternoon lesson, a young girl falls into a fantastical world of tea parties, croquet games, and the most absurd trial imaginable.

In Lewis Carroll's masterpiece, Alice disappears down a rabbit hole and encounters an entire world of unforgettable characters. Children love the story, but there is enough grown-up satire here to fill anyone's teacup!

Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, brought to life by award-winning actress Sheridan Smith. Featuring magical sound effects and specially composed music, this promises to delight and enamour children and adults alike. On an ordinary summer's afternoon, Alice tumbles down a hole, and an extraordinary adventure begins.

Wry, dry, and arch, this production of Lewis Carroll's classic tale of a fall through a rabbit hole to a fantasy world is otherwise just as familiar as ever. After a century and a half, Alice's adventure in Wonderland, one of the finest examples of literary nonsense, continues to attract listeners.

A vital children's classic whose profound symbolism can inspire adults too. Alice's fall down a rabbit hole takes her on an odyssey of different states of being. She grows; she shrinks. She talks to creatures great and small, and also kings and queens. Alice in so doing learns both kindness and strength. Life after all is largely a matter of perception and reaction.

Alice's adventures, funny, inventive and disturbing, have fascinated children and adults alike since their publication. The White Rabbit, the Mad Hatter, the Queen of Hearts and the Cheshire Cat (and, of course, Alice herself) all have something "Curiouser and curiouser!" to say in this new unabridged multi-cast recording. A delightful fantasy down the rabbit hole.

Once again, Alice enters into an imaginary world full of nonsense, color, and paradox. This time, she enters through a mirror and, as one might expect, everything becomes back to front. She is on a quest to become a queen in a fantastical game of chess meeting both help and hindrance in a cast of unforgettable characters such as Humpty Dumpty and the White Knight.

This is a SoundCraft Audiobook production - enhanced with music and sound effects - of Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking-Glass, the follow-up story to his classic children's tale Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. It is no exaggeration to say that over the years, Looking-Glass has become just as popular and beloved as Carroll's first book.

This 1872 sequel to Lewis Carroll's beloved Alice's Adventures in Wonderland finds the inquisitive heroine in a fantastic land where everything is reversed. Looking-glass land, a topsy-turvy world lurking just behind the mirror over Alice's mantel, is a fantastic realm of live chessmen, madcap kings and queens, strange mythological creatures, talking flowers and puddings, and rude insects.

Lewis Carroll's delightful sequel to Alice in Wonderland finds seven-year-old Alice off on another exciting adventure into Looking-Glass World. On her journey, she meets life-size chess pieces, Tweedledee and Tweedledum, Humpty Dumpty, and a host of fairy-tale creatures.

This is the story of Alice's second visit to Wonderland, where again every idea Alice has of logic and reason is logically and rationally challenged by her adventures. From the classic Red Queen, with her manic racing to enable her to stay exactly where she is, to the highly meaningful nonsense of the Jabberwocky, Alice's trip through the looking glass has provided us with a host of now familiar but no less teasing puzzles which somehow manage to give us a whole new reflection on 'normal' life.

When Alice steps through the looking-glass, she enters a very strange world of chess pieces and nursery rhyme characters such as Humpty Dumpty, Tweedledum and Tweedledee and the angry Red Queen. Nothing is what it seems and, in fact, through the looking-glass, everything is distorted.

Alice, now slightly older, walks through a mirror into the Looking-Glass House and immediately becomes involved in a strange game of chess. Soon, she is exploring the rest of the house, meeting a sequence of characters now familiar to most: Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the Red Queen, Humpty Dumpty, and the Walrus, to name a few. The popular and linguistically playful poem "Jabberwocky" is also featured in Through the Looking Glass.

Through the Looking Glass follows Alice as she enters another world of fantasy by climbing through a mirror which shows her more than just her reflection. Some of the more popular characters from this audiobook include Humpty Dumpty, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, Bandersnatch, and the Red King.

Alice is back in her room, stroking her cats, but not for long. Slipping through the looking-glass, she meets another wild collection of fantasy characters, including the Red and White kings and queens, and Tweedledum and Tweedledee, and she is entertained by the poems "Jabberwocky" and "The Walrus and the Carpenter".

When Alice steps through the looking-glass, she enters a very strange world of chess pieces and nursery rhyme characters such as Humpty Dumpty, Tweedledee and Tweedledum and the angry Red Queen. Nothing is what it seems and, in fact, through the looking-glass, everything is distorted.

Revisit the whimsical Wonderland...in reverse! Walk through warped images in a familiar world when Alice enters Wonderland not through a rabbit hole, but a mirror. Join her on a journey through shifting timelines and altering realities taken step by step on a living chessboard.

In this sequel to Alice’s Adventure’s in Wonderland, Alice enters another fantastical world, this time by climbing through a mirror. Just like her reflection, everything there is reversed – the nursery rhyme characters are real, running helps one stay still, walking away from something brings it closer. From the Red King to the White Queen, the cowardly brothers Tweedledum and Tweedledee and Humpty Dumpty, Alice meets a cast of characters who are familiar and eccentric.

When Alice steps through a mirror, she enters a reflection of her world where backwards is forwards, the future is remembered, and only the opposite of logic makes sense. Increasingly befuddled, she’s challenged by the belligerent Humpty Dumpty, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the nonsense rhymes of the Jabberwocky, and the discovery that she’s a pawn in a living game of chess. To become queen and find her way home, Alice must play.

Alice sees the other side of the Looking Glass, and enters another world of whimsical enchantment. She encounters argumentative chessmen, Jabberwocky monsters, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, and some very insolent flowers. Carroll continues the development of his Wonderland in this second, and many feel richer, adventure of Alice.
