This unique little book retains all the charm of the historic originals. With luxurious red cloth binding, gold blocking and gold sprayed edges, it is the perfect celebration of the 150th anniversary of Through the Looking-glass; a wonderful gift for fans of every age, an introduction to Alice and Wonderland for younger children, and a must-have for every collector's bookshelf.

Lewis Carroll was the pen-name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson. Born in 1832, Dodgson was a mathematics tutor at Christ Church College, Oxford, where he met Alice Liddell, daughter of the dean, and inspiration for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The book and its sequel, Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, have delighted children the world over for 150 years. Sir John Tenniel was already a renowned cartoonist when he was invited to produce illustrations for Alice. His exquisite engravings are among the most iconic and best loved images in the world.
