Ever since I was a child Alice and wonderland always struck a chord. I was that wandering child that would follow animals around the garden through the woods. Having adventures and making up stories.

Andrea D’Aquino has accomplished what artists do best. She has transformed the familiar into something new and compelling. This is not easy to do–especially for something like Alice in Wonderland which has been Disneyfied and mass marketed. Thanks for featuring this terrific work.

Please do send it to our family. Thanks for the opportunity to see it!
How stunning! I wonder if it’s the entire story, word for word? Love the illustrations! Any chance you know of any other classics reimagined in a similar way?

I love her work and the book! What a great combo!!!!!
I remember reading “Alice” when I was a child. The edition I had was A4 size, dark blue cover with a drawing of a golden key and nothing else (not even the title). I used to carry it everywhere with me – it was my very private treasure.
So completely wonderful. I will add this to my Christmas list if I don’t win!
Very interesting!
I recently just saw an exhibition on Alice in Wonderland at the Harry Randsom Center in Austin, Texas. It has been an incredible story for children and adults for so many years. This illustrated version is an insane amount of wonderful! I wish it had been in the exhibition! I’d love to have it at home.
so incredible! Lovely work, of course. I cannot wait to check out this book. I would love s copy for my family!
Wow-my wife and son would love this!
The art is as trippy as the story. Mesmerizing.
It looks to be an amazing book, that I would be proud to give (and read) to my grandson Luca.
Absolutely lovely! Wonderland has always been one of my favorites!!
I just discovered Andrea DA in the wee hours is this sleepless night. That brought me to you. It’s probably too late but I hope I win.
Oh, I would loooove to get that in Brazil! 😉
Brilliant! Thank you ~
My thesis was: ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, The Greek PunDaemonium’
Hope I’m not too late! Been wanting a copy of this!
Probably too late, but the beauty of this book made me HAVE to throw my name in… in hopes of getting a copy!
My daughters and me just watched the film by Tim Burton. Crazy burlesque! We have read the book. We are fans of Alice! We would love to read this beautiful take on the story – bring it on.
Thanks for the give away!
Wow! This version is truly stunning.
[…] Sometimes one of the most exciting things about a classic are in its retelling and reinterpretation. See more of Andrea D’Aquino’s new book. […]
Wonderfully lovely! I must have this book! Pick me, pick me! I would live to share this classic with fabulous new art to my budding-artist children!
