Vintage Alice In Wonderland & Through The Looking Glass By Lewis Carroll

2011-06-30T19:59:00.000+01:00

A strange thing about these world famous stories for children is that the author was really a great mathematician at Oxford. His real name was Charles Lutwidge Dodgson.

The fascinating stories of the adventures of a little girl named Alice started as tales told by Mr Dodgson to the real Alice & two small friends as they sat listening by a stream. The stories were first published in 1865 & in 1872. Since then legions of children & grown ups alike have enjoyed these most original of all tales of quaint fantasy.

Once read, no one can ever forget the White Rabbit, the Mad Hatter, the March Hare, the Queen of Hearts, the Caterpillar & all the other characters that came from the fertile mind of the friend of these girls.

Internally the pages are yellowed but it's in fabulous condition.

Vintage Little Men by Louisa M. Alcott

2011-06-30T19:55:00.001+01:00

Every girl knows & loves Little Women, but Louisa M. Alcott produced several equally entertaining sequels to it & Little Men is one of them. Little Women chronicled the doings of the March family, & in Little Men we again meet the tomboy of the family, Jo but now she is grown up into a sedate married lady - Mrs. Bhaer.

Jo's ambition has been realised - with her husband, Professor Bhaer, she has founded a school for boys. Underneath her responsible exterior, she is still the irrepressible Jo of Little Women, admirably suited to understanding boyish minds, & it is small wonder that her rather unconventional school is a success.

Louisa Alcott's famous classics are just as popular today as they were when they were first written, & Little Men is an ever fresh example of this great story teller's art.

Internally the pages are yellowed but for a book published in 1965 it's in fabulous condition.

Naughty Nan is studying to become a doctor, Tommy Bangs & Demi both choose business careers, Nat studies the violin, & the girls find good husbands & happy homes - a happy ending to a story full of laughter & joy, a happy ending to a story which all girls will treasure, & want to read over & over again.
