Yesterday I also learned about another remarkable illustrated edition of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland that is now available - although it might not be your top choice for children - as it is more abstract. This exciting Anna Bond edition of Alice in Wonderland is available from booksellers in the US and other countries:įrom Amazon and The Bookdepository (the last one offers free international shipping). I keep imagining that a wonderful presentation will help my kids remember the book better, by using their associative memory.Īnna Bond's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland There is something about children's book classics that makes them well deserving of luxurious editions.īeautiful books help to bring the point of the story closer to the listener and I make a point of reading great books from the best available edition.

This edition is a ground-breaking addition to the rich history of Alice in Wonderland. Today, if I was to choose a new hardcover, unabridged, hardcover version of of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland - I would probably opt for the Anna Bond that came out this year.Īfter researching it online, I fell in love with the concept. One of the amazing contenders for the title of best illustrated Alice in Wonderland is the Anna Bond illustrated edition.Īn amazing contemporary edition that has a cover that will blow your mind. The Oxenbury edition remains my favorite, but there are new kids on the Lewis Carrol block. Since I wrote my original post about the wonderful Alice books illustrated by Helen Oxenbury, it has become increasingly more difficult to find new copies of the Oxenbury-illustrated editions of Alice.

I can give you the best news right now - I updated this post several times since it was originally written.
