 | Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Angel Dominguez, Barry Moser, Carolyn Ewing, Cooper Edens, DeLoss McGraw
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.

 | The Novels by Dolan Hubbard, Langston Hughes
Though primarily known as a poet, Hughes (1902-1969), also expressed his experience as an African-American in two novels. With his first, NOT WITHOUT LAUGHTER, published in 1930, at the beginning of his career, and his second, TAMBOURINES TO GLORY, in 1958, as he approached his final decade, the volumes, published together here, bookend his journey as a literary figure. Mirroring the experiences of his own life, NOT WITHOUT LAUGHTER tells the story of a young black child and his grandmother in rural Kansas, while TAMBOURINES TO GLORY, set in Harlem, examines the exciting clash of black cultures that took fresh root in the new black metropolis.
