I absolutely love this book. I read it as a teen, and reread it numerous times since. Great for young and old alike!

What Parents Need to Know
About Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
Parents need to know that constantly changing predicaments, strange creatures, and the watercolors are very child-friendly. But difficult language, Carroll's nonsense poems, and adult humor leave some children bored or confused.

Lives inI rate this title on for age 2 and give ita classic that actually is classic
some classics have been around so long that nobody but kids notice that, sadly, they are classics no longer. this is completely not the case with alice. i love it, it is timeless, and i appreciate it on a new level every time i read it.
Lives in MarylandI rate this title on for age 5 and give itGreatest book ever
As a kid I really loved this book and it's sequal "Through the Looking Glass". It's the wimsey and surrealism that have always attracted me to these books, I just read them recently and really enjoyed them and I'm 20. Have your kid read the ones with the original art because those are the best. I'd also recomend reading "The Phantom Tollbooth."
