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.

So amazing
Usually I would prefer to read a book rather than listen to it, but in this case listening to it was extremely convenient its perfect for traveling in crowded spaces when you don't want to drag around a huge book all day. Alice in wonderland is one of my favorite books and Scarlett Johansson narrated it beautifully, not only is she an amazing actress in movies but she has an amazing voice perfectly suited for this role. Highly recommended!

Marge Simpson !
I found the narrators voice very screechy and high pitch.... when she was doing a characters voice... she sounded like a bad Marge Simpson.
For me her voice didn’t go down well.
Probably a personal thing.
Story is good however

annoying
at the beginning i felt it would be better without the USA accent but didnt find it off-putting
then as the reader got more excited the accent became stronger and stronger until i found it SO annoying and jarring that i turned it off - so i have only heard about half of this and dont want to hear any more

Ruined by being read inan american accent
Brooks written in pure English were better read with a pure English accent, and the american accent is so uncouth that it spoils any enjoyment of the book

A great version of this classic
Alice in Wonderland is one of my favourite books. I enjoyed listening to this version of the book read by Scarlett Johansson. I loved listening about Alice as she fell down the rabbit hole and began her journey through wonderland. I found the story became alive alot more with this audiobòok. Definitely a audiobook that I will listen to again xxx

Not the best reading
Not the best reading sounds like it’s her first time reading the book at some points. Still enjoyable tho.

A classic brought back to life.
This story has a special place in my heart. It's one I remember very fondly of my childhood after having countless books and even an audio book (cassette tape) which I had read and listened to many times.
So when I heard that this version was available I had to get it!
It is read so well and each character was brought to life exceptionally by Scarlett's performance.
The time zipped by so quickly after again having been sucked into the story.
I highly recommend this Audio book to anyone, whether you are new to the story or not. It's a 10 out of 10 from me.

Not sure about this
I wanted to be open minded but as an Alice obsessive I just wouldn’t get my head around something so quintessentially British in an American accent. The narrative fair enough, but Alice’s dialogue? It didn’t work for me...
