Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

Description
An elegant gift edition of one of the best-loved stories in children's literature, complete and unabridged with stunning full-colour illustrations by Júlia Sardà. Júlia's hauntingly magical pictures breathe new life into the famous tale of a bored little girl who finds herself falling into a world of bizarre creatures and whimsical riddles.
