Wonderland Revisited and the Games Alice Played There

This is a book that continues the adventures of Alice in Wonderland. She gets there a different way and meets a lot of new characters, often from the Mother Goose nursery rhymes material. In this case the trees can talk. One of the most interesting characters is one called The Expert.

There's a lot of craziness in the book, of course, and a lot of humor. All of that is to the good.

There are two things I didn't like about the book, though. The first is the illustrations which, in my opinion, are very much inferior to the original illustrations' style. The second thing is a minor point, but in the introduction there's some emphasis on how bridge is used in the book, but I didn't really see that much use of that particular game.

Still, it's a fun read.
