"Young and old alike will easily embrace Oxenbury's Alice, who seems both old-fashioned and modern, and comfortable in worlds on both sides of the mirror." — Booklist (starred review)
Helen Oxenbury's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland set a new standard for contemporary editions of Lewis Carroll's beloved classic, and this companion is illustrated with equal intimacy, warmth, and charm. Here again is Alice, dressed in her bright blue jumper and ready for adventure. All it takes is a bit of curiosity about the world reversed in the mirror, and suddenly Alice is interacting with all manner of comical and magical characters — Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the lion and the unicorn, and a game board of chess pieces come to life. Helen Oxenbury's incomparable line drawings, sepia illustrations, and full-color paintings give today's children an accessible view into Lewis Carroll's timeless nonsense.

"But are you really pro-life?" asked Alice. "Because you know, I've heard pro-life people talk before, and they sound quite different."
"When I use a word," Trumpty Drumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean ' neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Trumpty Drumpty, "which is to be master ' that's all."
Alice was too puzzled to reply to this, so she thought she had better change the subject.
"That is a fine wall, Mr. Drumpty," she said after a while. "It must have cost you a great deal to build it."
"It cost me nothing," said Trumpty Drumpty off-handedly. "Every single cent of it came from my friends in Mexico."
"They must be very good friends," said Alice politely.
"Not in the least," said Trumpty Drumpty. "But they had no choice, you see. First, I sent back all the illegal immigrants; and then I said that if the Mexican government didn't pay for my wall, I'd stop those immigrants from wiring any money home."
"But if you had sent them back," said Alice, who was now feeling even more puzzled, "then how'"
"You ask too many questions, young lady," snapped Trumpty Drumpty. "This interview is now over."
"Nothing is going right today!" Alice said to herself. "Oh, how I wish I hadn't taken that job with Fox News!"
