Random Magic


Professor Random has somehow lost the main character from Alice in Wonderland and sends Henry to find her.  Henry meets Winnie, a doodle witch, who leads them a series of crazy misadventures in search of Alice.

I believe the word I'm looking for is random, very, very random.  Because that is what a lot of this book is, RANDOM.  At first, I wasn't sure because it seemed so all over the place, but after I got into the groove and understood where the author was going, I liked it.  I liked Winnie the Doodle Witch.  She is the coolest and made the book great.

The search for Alice really does lead them through some crazy places and they meet a lot of literary characters and there are a lot of little allusions and tributes to great authors and books throughout.  So that makes it really fun.  Honestly, there could have been a little less, but overall I enjoyed this book.

  1. Is it just me or does the girl on the cover look vaguely like Nicole Kidman?
