Publisher's summary
The tale is filled with allusions to Dodgson's friends. The tale plays with logic in ways that have given the story lasting popularity with adults as well as children. It is considered to be one of the best examples of the "literary nonsense" genre, and its narrative course and structure have been enormously influential, especially in the fantasy genre.

Story
Elena Klovis was supposed to be her kingdom's Cinderella - until an accident of fate left her with a completely inappropriate prince! Determined not to remain with her stepfamily, Elena set out to get a new job - and ended up becoming the Fairy Godmother for the land. But "Breaking with Tradition" was no easy matter. True, she didn't have to sleep in the chimney, but she had to deal with arrogant, stuffed-shirt princes who kept trying to rise above their place in the tale.

Charlotte Dean enjoys nothing more than the solitude of her London flat and the monotonous days of her work at a travel bookshop. But when her younger sister unceremoniously bursts into her quiet life one afternoon, Charlotte's world turns topsy-turvy. Beloved author D. E. Stevenson captures the intricacies of post-World War I England with a light, comic touch that perfectly embodies the spirit of the time. Alternatively heartbreaking and witty, The Young Clementina is a touching tale of love, loss and redemption through friendship.

Narrator was dull...
I never paid attention to Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (or the Disney adaption) as a child outside of the many pop culture references. I was hoping for a whimsical story to go along with the strange world Lewis Carroll created, but the book suffered from being written in a time where sentences were wordier and stiffer in tone.
While the sentence structure is off-putting paired with the world of Wonderland, it might have been fine with a different narrator. Peter Yearsely has a very calming, monotonous voice that is more likely to lull you to sleep than keep you interested; especially in parts that feel like they drag on forever (ie: the mock turtle). This would be a good narration to put on for a kid during bedtime, but an adult who just wants to listen to audiobooks might find it boring.

Soothing
My favorite classic book to listen to over and over. Peter Yearsley is by far my favorite narrator of this story. I find his voice soothing and just what I look for when listening especially at night for bed.
