Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass by John Tenniel, Lewis Carroll, Marketa Prachaticka, Michael Page, Morton N. Cohen
As he escorted the three young daughters of a colleague on a trip up the river Isis, Lewis Carroll invented Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, the story of a little girl who tumbles down a rabbit hole. Full of such wonderfully eccentric characters as the Queen of Hearts, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, the Cheshire Cat, the Mock Turtle, and the Mad Hatter. The book is simultaneously a political allegory, a parody of Victorian children's literature, a fairy tale, a dream, and a child's chronicle of growing up.

Say Goodnight to Insomnia by Gregg Jacobs
Imagine an insomnia treatment that improves sleep in 100 percent of insomniacs, helps 75 percent of insomniacs become normal sleepers, and allows 90 percent of insomniacs to reduce or eliminate their use of sleeping pills. This treatment is safe, natural, and has no side effects except improved mood, higher energy, increased mind/body control, and better health. No, this is not a new miracle drug. It is Dr. Gregg Jacob's drug-free program described in SAY GOODNIGHT TO INSOMNIA.

The first clinician to offer proof that insomnia can be overcome without drugs, Dr. Jacobs's program provides techniques for: Eliminating sleeping pills; Establishing sleep-promoting habits and lifestyle practices; Changing negative, stressful thoughts about sleep; Implementing relaxation and stress-reduction techniques; Enhancing peace of mind and reducing negative emotions.
