About

I've been an illustrator for a long time, and have lately started to focus on promoting literacy for all age groups. My adaptations of Lewis Carroll's English classic Alice's Adventures in Wonderland marry vivid images to the unabridged written word. This is the original word-for-word story that will suprise anyone who has only seen the movies, presented in a an innovative format that will engage even reluctant readers!

Reviews

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is the full-color, graphic novel adaptation of Lewis Carroll's classic, fantastic adventure of a young girl who follows a white rabbit and becomes lost in a topsy-turvy magical world. Faithful to the original novel, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland perfectly captures the sharp-edged wit and wisecracking of the original. Best of all, dialogue of the original novel is completely unabridged - readers can enjoy the full literary experience! A treasure for all ages, and a &quot;must-have&quot; for any collection featuring graphic novels adaptations of works that have stood the test of time. ~The Midwest Book Review
