Publisher's summary
Golden Globe nominee Scarlett Johansson (Lost in Translation, Girl with a Pearl Earring) brings a palpable sense of joy and exuberance to her performance of Lewis Carroll's enduring classic Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. From the White Rabbit and Mad Hatter to the Cheshire Cat and Queen of Hearts, she imbues each madcap character with a distinct voice and personality that will leave a lasting impression long after the adventure is over.
One hundred and fifty years after its original publication, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland remains one of the most widely read, deconstructed, referenced, and reinterpreted works of Western fiction. It tells the story of the young and imaginative Alice, who grows weary of her storybook, one "without pictures or conversations", and follows a hasty hare underground - to come face to face with a host of strange and fantastic characters.

Elena Klovis was supposed to be her kingdom's Cinderella - until an accident of fate left her with a completely inappropriate prince! Determined not to remain with her stepfamily, Elena set out to get a new job - and ended up becoming the Fairy Godmother for the land. But "Breaking with Tradition" was no easy matter. True, she didn't have to sleep in the chimney, but she had to deal with arrogant, stuffed-shirt princes who kept trying to rise above their place in the tale.

Scarlett!
I've never been able to get past the first chapter of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. I tried other audio versions, reading it, renting the movie etc but always abandoned the effort early on. That is until Scarlett Johansson's voices brought out the magic of the story. Sensational! Now if only she would do an audible version of Remembrance of Things Past!

A Favorite
I love Alice in Wonderland as it is, and when I picked up this Audiobook I was unsure of its quality because of the Narrator but I have been pleasantly surprised. Now if I ever get the urge, I can listen to my all time favorite story and enjoy it front to back as if I were reading it to myself~

First time I enjoyed this book
Maybe I'm too literal, but I'd always felt hard-pressed to read this as anything but jibberish. Scarlett J brought the book - and characters - to life. I feel like I experienced the book as the author may have intended it to entertain his own children.

delightful
A well-known classic given new life by an excellent narration. As another reviewer suggested, it would be brilliant to have Ms. Johansson perform "Through the Looking Glass" as well.

Voices.
i love Alice in wonderland. I appreciated Scarlett's attempt at the different characters. At times, it was quite distracting.

Johansson is superb for this read
I love this book, but hearing it through Johansson's voice was an extra treat. She obviously loves the story and characters with her tone keeping with the curious nature of Alice.

Bonkers!
I only wish I could have read it 100 years ago to experience without any preconceptions... being overly familiar with the Disney version somewhat detracts from the sense of wonder a first-time reader should feel...
