Condition Report: Very Good. A bright, well-preserved copy of this modern illustrated softcover edition. The binding remains firm, square, and tight, with an entirely uncreased spine indicating it has seen little to no use. The dark, glossy covers present beautifully, though they exhibit minor shelf-wear and light rubbing to the extremities, particularly at the corner tips. Internally, the pages are crisp, clean, and bright, completely free of any inscriptions, annotations, or foxing.

Catalogue Note: This 2016 Walker Books softcover edition brings Lewis Carroll's timeless surrealist masterpiece to life through the distinctive lens of Anthony Browne, a former Children's Laureate and two-time winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal. Originally published with Browne's artwork in 1988 by Julia MacRae Books, this later Walker imprint makes his celebrated, highly detailed illustrations accessible to a modern audience.

The copyright page displays a full number line down to '1', indicating this is the first printing of this specific 2016 Walker Books paperback edition. While not a scarce volume, it remains a highly regarded modern visual interpretation of a classic text.

When a curious young girl named Alice tumbles down a rabbit hole in pursuit of a frantic White Rabbit, she enters a fantastical, illogical world where the rules of reality no longer apply. Encountering a host of bizarre and unforgettable characters, from the grinning Cheshire Cat and the eccentric Mad Hatter to the fearsome Queen of Hearts, Alice must navigate the absurdities of Wonderland to find her way home. Anthony Browne's brilliant artwork breathes new life into Lewis Carroll's seminal tale, pairing perfectly with the story's inherent surrealism and tongue-in-cheek humour.

Book Condition Guide

We stock thousands of books in a wide range of conditions. To make things clear and to help you know exactly what to expect, Please refer to these condition categories to understand the condition of the book you will receive.

Condition	Description
New	A brand-new, unread and professionally handled book. Carefully preserved from publication to purchase, these books are offered in the best attainable condition. This grade applies to recently published titles that have not entered long-term storage.
As New	The book is in pristine, original condition as if just published. No signs of use or handling. The dust jacket (if present) is equally flawless. This grade applies to any book that has remained untouched in storage for years.
Fine	The book is close to As New. It remains bright and attractive, but could show minor imperfections to the boards and/or dust jacket (if present). Its pages are typically clean and unmarked.
Near Fine	The book has a number of small flaws, i.e. slight rubbing to the edges, or tiny chips or creases to the dust jacket (if present). Its pages may have faint marks, or creases that are barely perceptible — nothing that detracts from their overall condition.
Very Good	The book maintains its structural integrity, and has no major flaws such as tears to its binding or pages. It may, however, show signs of careful use, handling, or storage — small marks and creases, light foxing. Its dust jacket (if present) remains fully intact, but small tears may be present.
Good	A book that remains intact and readable with complete text pages, but shows moderate signs of wear and use to both the book and dust jacket (if present). It may have noticeable creases, nicks, or stains, and the spine likely shows fading, bumping, and rubbing. There could be writing, underlining, and other marks on some pages, though the majority will be clean and tidy.
Fair	A book with significant wear or damage. The text pages will be complete, but there may be heavy underlining, highlighting and staining throughout, and the book’s endpapers, half-title, and copyright pages could be damaged or missing. The binding could be loose, and the dust jacket (if present) may have notable scuffs or tears. These copies are usually of interest for content, signature(s) or scarcity.
Poor	A heavily worn book whose value lies in its complete and legible text. A poor book will have substantial defects — loose joints or hinges, detached covers, loose and/or missing pages, and could be heavily soiled. A poor book is also known as a reading copy, and although compromised, can hold historical or bibliographic significance.
