John Tenniel Book order (chronological)

"This Beautiful edition contains complete original black and white illustrations by Sir John Tenniel. Alice in Wonderland is an 1865 novel by English author Lewis Carroll. It tells of a young girl named Alice, who falls through a rabbit hole into a subterranean fantasy world populated by peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures.

One of the best-known and most popular works of English-language fiction, its narrative, structure, characters and imagery have been enormously influential in popular culture and literature, especially in the fantasy genre. The work has never been out of print and has been translated into at least 97 languages. Its ongoing legacy encompasses many adaptations for stage, screen, radio, art, ballet, theme parks, board games and video games." -- Provided by Amazon.

Nejznámnější dílo matematika, logika a učence Lewise Carrolla vypráví příběh zvídavé dívky Alenky, která se rozhodla pronásledovat neobyčejného králíka s hodinkami. Skokem do králičí nory se začne rozvíjet příběh plný podivuhodností a fantazijních zápletek, jimž není konce díky obyvatelům podzemní říše. Alenka se zde setká se šklebivou kočkou, dostane se do portrhlé Čajové společnosti, zahraje si krokem se srdcovým králem a královnou a prožije spoustu dalších neuvěřitelných dobrodružství.

Auch das Spiegelland steckt voller Wunder. Nach seiner großartigen Alice im Wunderland aus dem vorigen Jahr erscheint jetzt Benjamin Lacombes zweiter Alice-Band, ein ebenso prächtig ausgestatteter Band wie der erste. Mit Alice hat Benjamin Lacombe sein großes Thema gefunden. Sechs Jahre nach Alice in Wonderland, im Jahre 1871, veröffentlichte Lewis Carroll sein zweites Alice-Buch, Through the Looking Glass. Das Buch war von Beginn an ein Bestseller, und Gestalten aus ihm, wie Tweedledum & Tweedeldee (Dideldum und Dideldei), Humpty Dumpty (Plumpsti Bumsti) und die Weiße und die Schwarze Königin sind kanonische Gestalten der Weltliteratur geworden. Textgrundlage unseres Buchs ist die behutsam modernisierte klassische Übersetzung von Helene Scheu-Riesz aus dem Jahre 1923.

The books are graded at six vocabulary levels, ranging from 400 words (Beginning) to 2,500 words
