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.

Alice sidder ved en flodbred med sin søster og keder sig, da hun pludselig får øje på en talende hvid kanin iført habitjakke, der løber forbi, mens den kigger på sit lommeur. Hun følger efter kaninen ned i dens hul, som hun falder dybere og dybere ned i, indtil hun ender i et mystisk eventyrland, hvor intet er, som det plejer at være. Her oplever hun alle mulige og umulige ting; hun vokser og krymper, svømmer i sine egne tårer, møder mærkelige dyr med overnaturlige kræfter og er lige ved at få kappet hovedet af på befaling af en kortspilsdronning.

"Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" (commonly shortened to "Alice in Wonderland") is an 1865 novel written by English mathematician Charles Lutwidge Dodgson under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll. It tells of a girl named Alice falling through a rabbit hole into a fantasy world populated by peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures. The tale plays with logic, giving the story lasting popularity with adults as well as with children. It is considered to be one of the best examples of the literary nonsense genre.

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, Tweedledum and Tweedledee and is entertained by the poems "Jabberwocky" and "The Walrus and the Carpenter."

Alice in Wonderland and Jabberwocky come alive in a fresh new and highly accessible way in this in this brilliant recording by acclaimed comedienne Alison Larkin and Audie-award-winning narrator Derek Perkins. The recordings are followed by a short excerpt from The Life and Letters of Lewis Carroll, by Carroll's nephew, Stuart Dodgson Collingwood.

Delight in this wonderful retelling of Alice in Wonderland. This beautifully voiced narrative follows Alice on her remarkable journey after falling through a rabbit hole into a fantasy world populated by strange creatures.

A girl named Alice is wondering what to do one day when a talking rabbit steals her attention. She is so intrigued that she follows him into his hole and tumbles down into Wonderland. She soon discovers that reality and logic as she knows them do not apply there.

Alice's rather wild adventures in Wonderland begin on an unadventurous picnic, when her attention, wandering off from the lesson it was supposed to be glued to, is caught by a passing white rabbit who happens to be wearing a waistcoat and muttering to himself, "Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!" As he disappears down a rabbit hole and Alice, for want of anything better to do, follows him, a tale of almost hallucinogenic wildness unfolds as she finds herself in Wonderland.

La imaginación de un niño no conoce fin, pero para la pequeña Alicia, esta imaginación sin fin se tornará realidad cuando un conejo blanco pasa en frente de ella, revisando un reloj de bolsillo.
