Nose in a Book

fortunenotyetfaded-blog asked

I downloaded Google Books and have three, free books: Pride and Prejudice, Great Expectations and Alice In Wonderland. Which should I read first? :)

Pride and Prejudice! My Dad’s actually reading it right now, and we were just talking about it. It’s really good, but so is Alice.
I’ve never read Great Expectations though; I need to get on that.

are you giving books to anyone for the holidays?

Yes! An illustrated copy of Home by Bill Bryson for my Dad, a copy of The Art of Tangled for a friend, a book of poetry by Pablo Neruda for another friend, a kid’s book about dinosaurs for my four year old cousin, Nancy Clancy Super Sleuth and a very nice copy of Alice in Wonderland for my six year old cousin and a Goosebump’s book for my twelve year old cousin. The books for my cousins are from my whole family, not just me.

this is probably an odd question but i was wondering if you had an idea of a book under the theme "the absurd" that i could use as a partner text for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll? any help much appreciated!

Maybe A Wrinkle in Time? I haven’t read Jacob Two Two and the Hooded Fang in a while (and I forget a lot of the plot) but you might want to look into that.
