Alice chases the White Rabbit down a rabbit hole and encounters a world of delightfully eccentric characters like the Mad Hatter, the March Hare, the Cheshire Cat, the Mock Turtle, and the Queen of Hearts. This enduring and evocative tale can be read on many levels and enjoyed by adults and children alike.

“What a delight to hear Michael York’s rendition of this classic. His distress at Alice’s predicaments humanizes a character who has become a near stereotype over the decades…. York’s elegant accents highlight Carroll’s wordplay and the tangles it makes of Alice’s distorted reality. His cameos of the hurried White Rabbit and dreamy-voiced, hookah-smoking Caterpillar are sound. Especially riveting is the Queen of Hearts, with her imperious shout—’Off with their heads!’ As Alice explores Wonderland, York is a superb guide.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid Rodrick Rules Review by 9 yr old

January 10th, 2009 |

wimpy2This one was AWESOME, too.  Where do I start…Well, there were ALOT of funny parts in this story. I mostly loved the part when Greg and other students pretended Chirag wasn’t in school with them when, in plain sight, was right in front of them the WHOLE TIME!!!!!!!! Another funny part is when Rodrick and Greg’s mom starts dancing IN CAMERA VIEW!!! The weirdest part is when Greg tells, in his “journal” , that Manny drew weird pictures after he actcidently watched a horror movie! I feel sorry for Rodrick when he got a good idea but it didn’t work out for him. You’ll understand if you buy this book. There weren’t really any disgusting parts this time. The cartoons were VERY funny. I loved Creighton the Cretin: Magic Tricks. I also loved the skit “The Boy Whose Family Thinks He’s A Dog”.  I hope “The Last Straw” is as good or better than 1 and 2!  It truly is The #1 New York Times Best Seller!
