> ALICE AU PAYS DES MERVEILLES, par Lewis Carroll (Hachette Pratique, 2015, Relié, 224 pages). — Assise dans l'herbe un jour d'été, Alice voit passer un Lapin Blanc qu'elle suit dans son terrier.

All in the golden afternoon Full leisurely we glide; For both our oars, with little skill, By little arms are plied, While little hands make vain pretense Our wanderings to guide

Lastly, she pictured to herself how this same little sister of hers would, in the after-time, be herself a grown woman; and how she would keep, through all her riper years, the simple and loving heart of her childhood; and how she would gather about her other little children, and make their eyes bright and eager with many a strange tale, perhaps even with the dream of Wonderland of long ago; and how she would feel with all their simple sorrows, and find a pleasure in all their simple joys, remembering her own child-life, and the happy summer days.
