In addition to the vivid and unforgettable characters, it is the book's experimental style, linguistic inventiveness and myriad of jokes and puzzles that account for the timeless fascination it inspires. Published to coincide with Alice in Wonderland's 150th anniversary, this volume includes John Tenniel's iconic drawings, the sequel Through the Looking Glass and a facsimile of Alice's Adventure's Under Ground, the early manuscript version of the novel illustrated by Lewis Carroll himself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Lewis+Carroll\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eLewis Carroll\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Lewis Carroll","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47377274110115,"sku":"9781847494078","price":240.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781847494078_e7584234-2615-428d-a09a-239d6d349c7a.jpg?v=1776602223"},{"product_id":"9781405288194","title":"The Little Prince","description":"\u003cp\u003eFew books have been as universally cherished by children and adults alike as The Little Prince. A beautiful gift edition of this touching and wise classic children's book, with the original translation by Katherine Woods and full-colour illustrations. A pilot stranded in the desert awakes one morning to see the most extraordinary little fellow standing before him. Please, asks the stranger, draw me a sheep. And the pilot realises that when life's events are too difficult to understand, there is no choice but to succumb to their mysteries. He pulls out a pencil and paper ... and thus begins this wise and enchanting fable that, in teaching the secret of what is really important in life, has changed the world forever for its readers. This stunning new edition of the classic children's book The Little Prince, includes the classic English translation by Katherine Woods and original colour illustrations which will capture the hearts of readers of all ages. Antoine de Saint-Exupery (1900-1944) was born in Lyons, France. He wrote The Little Prince in the United States during a two-year self-imposed exile from occupied France. A year after the book's publication in 1943, Saint-Exupery disappeared over the Mediterranean while flying a reconnaissance mission for his French air squadron. Best known throughout the world as the author and illustrator of The Little Prince, Saint-Exupery wrote several other books that have also become classics of world literature. Katherine Woods (1886-1968) produced the original English translation of The Little Prince in 1943. It was later followed by several other English translations, but her classic translation is treasured by fans and is often considered to be the definitive English translation. Her poetic translation perfectly captures the enchantment and charm of Saint-Exupery's storytelling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Antoine+De+Saint-Exupery\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eAntoine De Saint-Exupery\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Antoine De Saint-Exupery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47377982390435,"sku":"9781405288194","price":335.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781405288194_f7acd599-5e90-441a-9406-481f51238803.jpg?v=1776523794"},{"product_id":"9781529007503","title":"Through The Looking Glass And What Alice Found There","description":"\u003cp\u003eA beautiful reimagining of this beloved children's book featuring full-colour illustrations by Chris Riddell, the 2015-2017 UK Children's Laureate. Chris Riddell's brilliant full-colour illustrated. Through the Looking-glass in a sumptuous hardback jacketed edition, a perfect gift for families, children and all fans of this much-loved favourite classic. First published by Macmillan more than 150 years ago, Lewis Carroll's iconic stories have been loved and enjoyed by generations of children the world over. Curious Alice's second adventure takes her through the looking-glass to a place even stranger than the Wonderland of her first adventure. Caught up in the great looking-glass chess game she sets off across the chequerboard landscape to become a queen on the final square. It isn't as easy as she expects: at every step she is hindered by unusual, funny and nonsense characters who crop up. Some of them insist on reciting poems to her and these poems, such as 'The Walrus and The Carpenter' and 'Jabberwocky', are now as famous as the Alice stories themselves. This edition presents Lewis Carroll's complete text, with illustrations from Costa Award- and Kate Greenaway Medal-winner Chris Riddell. Published 200 years after the birth of Alice's first illustrator, Sir John Tenniel, also the political cartoonist of his time, Chris Riddell's illustrations set a new bar in terms of excellence with his unique, rich and evocative interpretation of Carroll's world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Lewis+Carroll\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eLewis Carroll\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eIllustrator\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Illustrator+Chris+Riddell\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eChris Riddell\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Lewis Carroll","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47379473596579,"sku":"9781529007503","price":699.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781529007503_d40e9560-58e6-443b-abd8-e061c4971462.jpg?v=1776559980"},{"product_id":"9780723299066","title":"Classic Stories to Share","description":"\u003cp\u003eLadybird has published fairy tales for over forty-five years, bringing the magic of traditional stories to each new generation of children.
