Alice in Wonderland: A beloved children’s chapter book well before it became a movie; Alice in Wonderland is just as captivating on paper as it is on a screen. The book begins with Alice sitting on riverbank one warm, lazy, day, when she see’s something strange-a white rabbit in a waistcoat who dashes by, pauses to look at his pocket watch, and then dashes off down a rabbit hole. Insatiably curious, Alice follows him. She comes upon a great hallway filled with doors, and once she figures out how to get through, she embarks upon a series of wacky, absurd adventures that are both humorous, and slightly frightening.
