ALICE'S WONDERLAND ADVENTURE
Alice in Wonderland – Retold, Reimagined & Reinvented
The summary of this audiobook is as follows:
Seven-year-old Alice follows her younger brother William (nicknamed the White Rabbit for his obsession with time) into a hidden door in their garden hedge, tumbling into Wonderland—a surreal world where her family embodies fantastical roles. Her father is the Mad Hatter, her mother the tyrannical Queen of Hearts, and William the frantic White Rabbit. Guided by a Cheshire Cat and talking flowers, Alice navigates absurd challenges, including a chaotic croquet match with the Queen and a trial over a missing strawberry from a royal tart (secretly stolen by William to aid her escape).
Throughout her journey, Alice learns that Wonderland is a reflection of her family’s hidden quirks: her father’s creativity flourishes as the Hatter, her mother’s strictness magnifies as the Queen, and William’s punctuality defines his rabbit persona. After outwitting the Queen’s wrath with help from the Dormouse and her brother, Alice climbs back through the rabbit hole, returning to her ordinary life—but with a strawberry and a tiny blue hat as proof her adventure was real.
The story blends whimsy with deeper themes of identity, family dynamics, and the blurred line between reality and imagination, offering a fresh twist on the classic Alice in Wonderland tale.
The initial opening credit music is modern, upbeat with female vocals lasting about 3 minutes with the instrumental closing music about the same jazz funk genre.
The story and music itself runs to nearly 1 hour and is narrated by claire francis, my wife.
I do hope you enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come
