What fun! It's been 150 years since Alice in Wonderland was first published. Despite having read countless abridged versions of it, I finally got my own copy only a few years back. It's a lovely unabridged version and belongs to the Vintage Series.
I stumbled onto the official website that has been created to mark this occasion and there are quite a few things that I found exciting like these videos below that actually play on loop.
The website is filled with exciting visuals, and tells the story of Alice even before it was penned down into the book and tracks it down history in an exciting timeline interspersed with rich stories of its creators through time.
With its vivid imagery, unique characters and mesmerizing places, Alice in Wonderland is a treat to all ages. Like these prints made by William Morris remind me of the enchanting gardens that Alice danced though.
