<p>Lewis Carroll (the pen name of Charles Dodgson) was inspired to write down the now classic tale of &quot;Alice&#39;s Adventures in Wonderland&quot; after regaling several young children with it while on an outing.&nbsp; Not long after the book was published with 42 illustrations by John Tenniel.&nbsp; While it wasn&#39;t an immediate success it has since become a favorite of young people over the generations.&nbsp; It has been released in various other forms since then with Hollywood taking several cracks at it.&nbsp;</p><p>But wouldn&#39;t you like to read it almost exactly how it was first release?&nbsp; We all know how movies alter books somewhat and sometimes they make the original book unrecognizable.&nbsp; Here is your chance to read the book as Carroll intended it to be read!&nbsp; This edition is derived from an 1869 reprint of the original 1865 text making it almost as close as you can get to the original!&nbsp; Imagine sitting down with your children or grandchildren and reading this classic almost exactly as it would have been read more than one hundred years ago.&nbsp; Dodgson was prompted by his friend George MacDonald (another famous author of the 1800s) to publish this book.&nbsp; Read it yourself to find out why!</p>
