Return to Wonderland by Various
4.0
As a huge lover of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, I went into this collection of short stories inspired by the classic tale with high hopes. Luckily, these hopes were met!
A lot of the stories capture the fun and whimsy of the original whilst also giving us an excellent perspective on different characters that don't get their full time to shine in the Carroll classics, such as Pig, The Knave of Hearts and the Caterpillar.
Some of the stories are better than others, (there is a fairly meh story about hedgehogs and a very heavy handed story about global warming and bees) but for the most part this collection is a brilliant, colourful and magical return down the rabbit hole that all fans of Alice will enjoy.
