On Christmas Eve, Clara is given a special gift from her Godfather--a beautiful nutcracker doll. But when Clara awakes in the middle of the night, she finds her beloved nutcracker has transformed into a handsome prince, and together, they set off for the Land of Sweets.

My Review

This is a cute book for young readers. The illustrations are bright and colorful. I like that the words in this story are not very long or hard to pronounce with tons of syllables. Young children who can read will enjoy this book. Those who are a bit too young to read on their own will like the pictures. This book is a good one to grab for bedtime.




When Alice falls down a mysterious rabbit hole she stumbles upon a magical fantasy world where anything can happen . . .

Take tea with the Mad Hatter, meet the White Rabbit, grin with the Cheshire Cat, and play croquet with the Queen of Hearts, but whatever you do . . . don't lose your head!

Lewis Carroll's classic characters spring to life in an enchanting show for the whole family, bursting with music, madness and mystery.

Simon Reade's adaptation of Lewis Carroll's much-loved fantasy classic Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is a witty and brilliantly inventive re-working, which won the TMA Award for Best Show for Young People.

My Review

This is a fun book. Not that race makes a difference but I do like that Alice in this book is of "color". Alice in Wonderland is a classic and favorite story of mine. I was on the journey from the beginning to the end with Alice. Young readers will have an enjoyable time looking at the pictures as well as reading this book. Parents will want to check out all of the books in this line by Penguin.
