review 1: This was a long indulgence for a read, but well worth it. While Alice's world is by far the best known in this book, the "Other Stories" are the draw. The tale of Sylvie and Bruno became the closest to my heart and I even shed a tear or two at some points within their stories. This is a read that needs to take its time, perhaps that one that you set aside while reading easier to digest novels, but remain the one you return to when you want something more to chew on.
review 2: This is the first Barnes & Noble Leatherbound Classic book I have read, and judging by only the cover, it's absolutely astounding. Cute and pink with wonderful artwork, and pages dipped in gold which gives the pages that ''old'' vintage feeling! The first two parts of the book is of cou... morerse the Alice books - I finished those in a day each, it was wonderful reliving my childhood, and also learning more about the books, as the Disney and Tim Burton movies are just mere interpretations. I loved the books even more! The next two parts are the Sylvie and Bruno books, which were wonderful and cute! Really recommend those if you like the Alice books, but are heavier to read as they are longer and with no pictures – So I wouldn’t really recommend it to a younger child. But the fun doesn’t end here! There’s LOTS of other goodies to discover. Verses, puzzles, poems, stories, and a big ‘’miscellany’’ chunk with lots of fun stuff! There are even mathematical problems and equations or those who are smart enough! Riddles and guides are also included. So if you’re a fan of Mr. Lewis Carroll and Victorian literature, get this book at once! At only $18, it’s even worth it if you just buy it just to read the Alice stories! Here in Norway they sell some books from the Leatherbound Classic series for a whopping $41.50 each! I bought this and another book from the series, and with shipping the total was only $54.50! So I will continue ordering from Barnes & Noble in the future! Hope to collect all the books one day. What are you waiting for? Click Add to Bag now!! Happy reading! - Caroline Carnivorous less
