We love the latest-Your Own Adventures in Wonderland. If you were a regular at Thady Con's on Second Avenue at 48th Street before it was torn down, you'll remember Cray and Dempsey singing about a girl named Alice, but not the Wonderland kind. The chorus is along the lines of Who Is Alice? and that is exactly what this book is-Alice Who? It is not about Alice, it is about YOU and you put in all of your preferences, or the preferences of the person lucky enough to receive this as a gift. This book is as fun to make and give as it is to receive, and who doesn't love a great Tea Party? This only could be better if it was delivered by Johnny Depp who played a fabulous Mad Hatter in the movie....Whom You Know recommends U Star Novels and we love making our own Adventures in Wonderland!!!
