Robert Ingpen breathes his magic into this magnificent edition of a classic children's tale that never fails to capture the imagination.
Robert Ingpen's illustrations are a continual delightIn Alice Through the Looking Glass (Templar £16.99) the illustrator has plenty of scope for his talent as he, with the reader, enters into Lewis Carroll's topsy-turvy game of live chess. This edition of the classic novel is a treasure full of sumptuous illustrations, making it an excellent choice of Christmas gift. -- Jane Sandell * The Scotsman *
