This anthology stands as a testament to Carroll's innovative contribution to children's literature, presented through a rich array of styles that capture both the dream-like adventures of Wonderland and the satirical wit of his storytelling. Within these pages, the reader encounters an enchanting collection characterized by Carroll's linguistic playfulness, inviting young and mature minds alike to transcend the mundane through its extraordinary narratives, beautifully complemented by illustrated contributions from Harry Furniss and Henry Holiday. Each contributor to this edition brought a distinctive vision to Carroll's iconic tales, with illustrators like Furniss and Holiday adorning the narratives with their masterful artistry. These visual storytellers, known for their engagement with Victorian aesthetics, infuse the tales with illustrative vigor, further immersing the audience into Carroll's fantastical realms. As a collective, these creators echo and expand upon the social and literary nuances of the Victorian era, bridging literature and illustration, thus enriching the cultural tapestry from which these timeless tales were born. A must-have for lovers of classic literature, this book invites readers on an enlightening journey through diverse interpretive lenses and expressive forms. It offers an unparalleled opportunity to reconsider and relish the imaginative power of Carroll's oeuvre, not only through textual engagement but through the dynamic interplay with its artistic accompaniments. This anthology serves as both an educational treasure and a fanciful escapade, championing the boundless possibilities found at the intersection of great literature and visual storytelling.

    Tāwhaki: The Deeds of a Demigod recalls the miraculous life of Tāwhaki. Similar to Māui, Tāwhaki was a demigod who possessed mighty powers. Tāwhaki almost died at the hands of his brothers-in-law but was found by his wife Hine-piripiri and revived. This near-death experience revealed Tāwhaki's status as a demigod, and from this point Tāwhaki continued to use his powers and gifts to help those around him in ways no human could. This book explores many of these stories, including those of Tāwhaki restoring sight to his blind grandmother and climbing the heavens to find his wife and child.
