Cute, but not my favorite. I missed having Jonah in the story. Glad to learn more about Maryrose & am curious how Penny will play into this.

We didn't finish this book. The dynamic between Abby and Penny was really annoying and caused my son to lose all interest.

Kinda obvious moral, but cute none the less. Enjoyed how it stayed true to the original story, not just the movie.

Great book, only it should be a little bit more crazy like Alice and wonderland

Special edition in the Whatever After series! In this book, Abby and her friends go to Wonderland. Everything is cooky, odd, backwards and exactly how Wonderland should be. I like how the author tosses in explanations for words that have more than 1 meaning or sound alike but are spelled differently. Great spin on one of my favorite stories. Love it!!!!

I thought this re-imagining was really good. It brouht the original Alice in Wonderland a new life. The characters were good, and the ending was good. It solved problems logically and I really liked how the Queen of Hearts was a actual card not a person. I don't have any complaints, beside the fact that it was a childish book, meaning it was middle grade, but overall it was good.
