Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

Illustrated by Robert Ingpen.

New York: Sterling Publishing Company, 2009.

Ingpen’s illustrations, all either in full color or in muted tones, are soft, with a lot of yellow and brown coloring. Perhaps the colors of dreams? Or, if not that, they are at least removed from Tenniel’s sharp black and white realism.
