    Synopsis
    Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" is considered to be one of the masterpieces of world literature and has been selected as one of the 100 greatest novels of all time by The Guardian . With its funny and imaginative dialogues , the author takes us to a whole new world. The reader's imagination is stimulated by scenes where drinking from a bottle will make Alice larger or smaller, where there are cakes that are made of pepper only, where there is a crazy trial and much more. You could say there are almost philosophical traits within the book. Thus, when Alice asks the Cheshire Cat for directions, the cat says: That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,' said the Cat.Das hängt zum guten Teil davon ab, wohin du gehen willst,' sagte die Katze . I don't much care where--' said Alice.Es kommt mir nicht darauf an, wohin --' sagte Alice. Then it doesn't matter which way you go,' said the Cat.'Dann kommt es auch nicht darauf an, welchen Weg du nimmst,' sagte die Katze.' Not only authors of children's literature were inspired by his books, but also painters like the Surrealist artist Max Ernst or André Breton. "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" is a story that does not get boring even after reading it multiple times, sparks the imagination and is funny: perfect for learning English. The book is suitable for adults, or parents how would like to learn German together with their children. Maybe you can learn German together (depending on theage of the child). Or you brush up your German with this bilingual edition. About this edition: (Parallel Text, Bilingual) You can choose to read in German or English, switch between the two languages or justinsert some German words if you read to your child The original text and the literary translation are placed in parallel vertical columns side by side .

      These books truly look brand new, so they are an even better deal than I thought they'd be. I'm hoping they will be a good tool for me to learn a bit more German. We'll see... :P
