“Alice in Wonderland, that timeless and delightful children’s tale by Lewis Carroll, has here been lavishly illustrated by well-known Australian artist Charles Blackman.  Very few fully-illustrated editions of Alice have appeared since the nineteenth-century version illustrated by John Tenniel and this book is believed to be the first full-colour illustrated edition by a major artist.
the thirty five colour paintings and numerous black-and-white illustrations for the book have been carefully selected by Nadine Amadio.  These paintings will make it of interest to art lovers the world over, and undoubtedly many copies will find a home among them, but fundamentally it is still a children’s book at a children’s book price.”
