Massimiliano Longo. Alice nel Paese delle Meraviglie



Massimiliano Longo draws a more mature Alice, a teenager who lives the adventure in Wonderland with a higher consciousness, without  loosing the freshness of childhood of Lewis Carroll's Alice. The drawings, made by simple pencil lines, represent scenes rich in details which become almost  photographic pictures in the colour plates. The whole characters are very realistic to confirm the idea that at the end of the Rabbit hole begins a Wonderland as real as our land.

Emma Chichester Clark. Alice in Wonderland.




A merry brigade keeps company to Alice in her games and adventures in the backyard. Emma Chichester Clark gives to  younger readers as well as to grown ups, a joyful and amusing story set in a world full of things to discover. The bright colours and the appealing illustrations of the English author transform Lewis Carroll's classic in a contemporary tale in which dreams and reality are the same thing.
