Il miglior libro di sempre! Assieme ad Attraverso lo specchio, naturalmente! (questa edizione contiene solo Nel paese delle Meraviglie però)
Colleziono da sempre ogni edizione di Alice che riesco a trovare.

The best book ever! Together with Through the Looking Glass, obviously! (but that edition contains only Journeys in Wonderland!)
I collect every edition of Alice that I can find!

Regole per il ring:
Fate una journal entry quando il libro arriva da voi ed una quando lo spedite; se possible evitate di fare la release note, solo journal entries.
Contattate il Bookcrosser che viene dopo di voi per avere l'indirizzo a cui spedire il libro dopo averlo letto.
Troverete un piccolo quaderno in cui potrete lasciare tutti i messaggi che vorrete...non perdetelo, per piacere!
Potete mettere nel libro (o nella busta di spedizione) dei segnalibri o delle cartoline della vostra città, mi farebbe piacere!
Vi prego di trattare bene il libro, sottolineatelo pure, ma ordinatamente e a matita possibilmente (anche colorata se volete!) e commentate anche a margine, ma sempre a matita! Niente orecchie, please! Sarò puntigliosa, ma i miei libri, anche quelli che libero, sono tutti perfetti e non sopporto i libri maltrattati!

IMPORTANTE: è inutile specificare che, quando vi arriverà il libro a casa, sarebbe meglio che avesse la precedenza su tutto quello che state già leggendo, in modo da farlo ripartire in tempi brevi nel rispetto di tutti coloro che hanno aderito.

and now...in english!

Journal Entry 8 by Frangipani04 on Monday, March 27, 2006

Journal Entry 9 by Frangipani04 on Wednesday, April 12, 2006

I finally read this little book! Though I saw Alice's adventures in several different ways, I had never read the true book! I liked it a lot... It made me thing about the crazy world in which we do actually live in! All around us there are also strange (and sometimes cruel) things happening, but somehow they seem to become normal, like they did for Alice. Maybe we should pay more attention to small miracles happening around us, like rabbits running or mad hatters drinking tea, instead of just passing by them...

Here is a small bit that made me think:
"'Visit either you like: they're both mad.'
'But I don't want to go among mad people', Alice remarked.
'Oh, you can't help that', said the Cat: 'we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.'
'How do you know I'm mad?', said Alice.
' You must be', said the Cat, 'or you wouldn't have come here.'



I already have the address of Snoopy78, so the book will be sent back to Italy in the next couple of days!

Thank you for sharing the book, Sarina!

Edit: sent on 19/04.

I read this book to school, many years ago. I have read you in Italian and I had not liked very much it. it is more beautiful in English, even if I do not like the Alice's adventures in wonderland much.


the book will be sent today
