Lewis Carroll's Adventures in Wonderland must surely be one of the most famous Children's books ever written, but comparatively few people know of the existence of The Nursery 'Alice' which Lewis Carroll prepared especially for young children. Containing twenty enlarged and colored versions of Tenniel illustrations, with a cover painted by E. Gertrude Thompson, the book was first published in 1890 and produced by Edmund Evans, the leading Victorian color printer.
Here is a delightful introduction for the very young to one of the most celebrated characters in children's literature, complete with Sir John Tenniel's illustrations which have become as much a part of Alice as Lewis Caroll's own text.
