Placing a child at the centre of a narrative that was entirely free of instruction, entirely devoted to delight, was a stroke of genius. The Alices are the greatest nonsense ever written, and far greater, in my view, than most sense." --Philip Pullman<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Lewis Carroll</b>, the pen name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, is the author of <i>Alice's Adventures in Wonderland</i>, beloved by children and adults alike. <b>Robert Ingpen</b> was awarded the Hans Christian Andersen Medal for his contribution to children's literature in 1986 and he has been honored with Membership of the Order of Australia.
