Beschreibung
Die berühmte Fortsetzung von Lewis Carrolls Kinderbuch "Alice im Wunderland" als Fremdsprachentext im englischen Original mit den 50 Original-Illustrationen von John Tenniel. The famous second part of 'Alice in Wonderland', illustrated by John Tenniel: Alice climbs through a mirror into a curious wonderland. Everything there is reversed - even the logic: Whoever runs, does not come from the spot. Whoever approaches something moves away from it. And lifeless chess pieces are brought to life - as well as the characters from funny nursery rhymes. In this land she gets into a great chess game and sets off to become a queen. On her adventurous journey she meets the strange twins Tweedledum and Tweedledee, Humpty Dumpty, Queens and Knights and Kings.
