Lewis Carroll's world famous story follows young Alice as she makes her way across a surreal world of mad hatters and talking flowers ruled by the Queen of Hearts.
Children from Eastfield Primary School, West Hull, shared their thoughts on the book.
Leanne Day, 10, of West Hull, gave it four out of five stars.
Summarising the story she said: "Alice falls down a rabbit hole and gets trapped in Wonderland and can't get out.
"When Alice is there she has foods that make her grow or go smaller.
"The setting of the story is in the Queen Of Heart's castle where Alice get an invitation to play croquet with the Queen.
"Alice thinks the Queen is a bit mad because she likes chopping people's heads off."

“To Charles and Billy - yes, maybe today's PC world would view Lewis Carroll's book as being a bit too much for children! Well done to Leanne and Jonathan. Alice in Wonderland is a classic story and a wonderful opportunity for a child to immerse him/herself into a world of imagination. They have given superb views of the story!”

“Strange to think that Lewis Carroll would probably be locked up nowadays for being a junkie paedo.”
