A lovely vintage copy of this children's classic, in gift-giving, heirloom quality but not too posh to be read with enthusiasm. All the illustration in this volume 0 including the endpapers and dust wrapper - are those of Sir John Tenniel, the classic illustrations widely associated with Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
