From the cover notes:
If you enjoyed Lewis Carroll’s books “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” and “Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There”, this is the book for you! Finally, there is a third story in the ‘Alice’ series – written in Carroll’s familiar style, but packed with a great number of completely new puns, parodies, and poetry.
This time, Alice explores an under-water world, in which she meets new characters who again make her wonder about their strange logic and behaviour.
The story can be enjoyed by everyone, even those who have never read Carroll’s books. However, the more familiar you are with them, the more references you will recognise in this exceptionally clever tale…
Lenny de Rooy is the webmaster of alice-in-wonderland.net and you can buy the book via there or on Amazon.
The book features many new characters for Alice to meet- from goldfish to Goby, Swordfish to Sand fleas and Red Herrings to Haddock. (The latter pair bear a resemblance to two rather more familiar friends…)
All the pictures are great- detailed black and white integrated into the text in a very Tennielish fashion.
