-I’m taking a ballads and folktales course this semester as part of my children’s literature degree and I thought about it so much while reading this book-the theme is Alice in Wonderland-EVERYONE has a motive which I think is very good-this is definitely a good afternoon read with a cozy cup of coffee Four stars.
