There are very few children's books on the best books list, so Alice in Wonderland is in rare company. It is, of course, full of nonsense and silliness, but it wouldn't be Alice in Wonderland if it wasn't! It is also very entertaining. At least some of the nonsense is tongue-in-cheek, which makes it more amusing for the older reader. I am not a fan of the rather long story of the oysters that is told by Tweedledum and Tweedledee. I really like the Mimsy were the Borograves poem. It is a quick easy read that is worth the time.
