Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is one of the most popular children’s stories ever written. It was first published in 1865 and has been translated into over 150 languages.
This edition of Lewis Carroll’s masterpiece contains the full, unabridged text, a “Pre-Flight” to read before the story, a “Wrap-Up” to read after the story, discussion questions and original art from several early editions of the book. Much of the art has been enhanced with talk bubbles both for fun and to reinforce the content of the story.
In addition, Mr. Draeger falls down a big hole and ends up in the The World of Literature where he attends the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party to learn about the life of Lewis Carroll. Impossible, you say? Anything is possible in the Literature Disguised as Fun series, including really good pizza.
Please note that a brief synopsis of many of the books included here are provided in our Library Builders section. Study guides for the same book are often available from several publishers, so we found it more efficient to give a description of the book only once.
These are contained (include the story), inexpensive, and non-consumable literary components you can weave into your language arts for middle and high school ages. Each one can be done by a student and parent, small group or a classroom. The content is not religious unless the author mentions it as a talking point (even then, they are not biblical in nature.) It's the questions after the story that really tripped my trigger! Why do you think so-and-so responded the way he did? Why was that good or bad? What might you have done in that situation? I'm generalizing to show the higher-order thinking structure of the questions. A short biography of the author and some background to the setting introduces the mood to come. Read the story, then comes the discussion questions. You could easily make a question into an essay topic! The voice of the guides themselves is very friendly and conversational. It makes for a relaxed vibe going into some pretty dark and heavy literature. The prices vary with the length of the reading, but they all have the same pre- and post-story content. A few scattered illustrations poke fun at the topics. At the end, I quite liked reading some quotes from the author and suggestions for further reading. These feel like something you could work into a busy week when you may not get to your heavier work. Or maybe you find yourself picking one up between larger novels to discuss. The titles are some that you may not know, so have a try at something new! I would get the whole set if it were me. ~Sara
