Publisher's Summary
Golden Globe nominee Scarlett Johansson (Lost in Translation, Girl with a Pearl Earring) brings a palpable sense of joy and exuberance to her performance of Lewis Carroll's enduring classic Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. From the White Rabbit and Mad Hatter to the Cheshire Cat and Queen of Hearts, she imbues each madcap character with a distinct voice and personality that will leave a lasting impression long after the adventure is over.
One hundred and fifty years after its original publication, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland remains one of the most widely read, deconstructed, referenced, and reinterpreted works of Western fiction. It tells the story of the young and imaginative Alice, who grows weary of her storybook, one "without pictures or conversations", and follows a hasty hare underground - to come face to face with a host of strange and fantastic characters.

Excellent Narration
I listened to this with my daughter, and we loved the variety of voices, making each character unique and helping us follow the flow of the story. The book has been one of my favorites from childhood and this brought it to life.

Narration & Voice Acting
I decided to listen to Scarlett’s rendition on a whim, but her talent quickly enthralled me.
If you’re on the fence thinking this might be another monotonous narration of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, be assured Scarlett doesn’t disappoint in this rendition—she simply leaves you wanting more.
Thank you (Scarlett), for this wonderful experience.

I heard it’s a classic but it really wasn’t that good.
Scarlett Johansen did a good job narrating.

A waste of time.
This book might be tolerable if I was 11 and didn't care about anything making sense. I guess that is supposed to be the beauty of it, and most likely why it is a classic. But...this is lost on me, I found it boring and irrelevant.

Great audiobook, bad platform
Scarlett does a great job with a variety of distinct voices. A fun listen for all ages.
Unfortunately, the app is broken and won't play my purchase. But you can download on the pc and remove the DRM to play it with any media player. Do better audible.

Absolutely amazing
Loved this book. Scarlett Johansson had so many different voices for all the characters, and the narrative was excellent. Full marks! Great book.

Delightful Nonsense!
Oh, Scarlett Johansson! What a wonderful job you did of all the crazy voices you created for the characters in Alice's adventure!
If there was such a thing as an "Audible Oscar Award" you would win best actress for sure.
This book was a delight to listen too.
Thank you Audible for making this part of your offerings.
Well done!

Very good
It was very good and I finished it in a couple of days. The reader was very good at doing different voices for all the characters. Overall I would say it was one of the best books I have listened to on audible

I underestimated
Having an American read the character of Alice in the story of Alice in Wonderland seemed like a big mistake to me when I set out to listen to Scarlett Johansson read this classic.
I underestimated her skill as a reader and performer, and what a pleasant surprise that was.
The story of Alice in Wonderland isn't a new one. It's been animated and acted and animated again, and released in a hundred formats. Filled with whimsical characters and a fulfilling plot of a little girl coming into her own (say what you will about Lewis Carroll's hidden agenda in the story) it's a surefire win for both kids, and imaginative adults alike. If you enjoyed this book as a kid, you'll enjoy the version performed by Scarlett.
Scarlett truly offers a transcendent performance in this. While her British accent might not be perfect her ability to bounce between all of the characters in the story and give them unique life is wonderful. I especially enjoyed her performance with the mock turtle and the griffin.
Alice in Wonderland is a short listen at less than three hours, but one that I think anyone will enjoy. I don't recommend speeding the narration. Her voice is well suited for the style of the story and the pace she reads at, and you'll lose some of her nuance if you accelerate the pace.
Lots of fun from a new voice telling an old story.

DO BATS EAT CATS?
DON'T BE NERVOUS OR I'LL HAVE YOU EXECUTED
As an adult I found it silly in parts, deep in parts, but mostly original. I enjoyed the tea party, the croquet game and the trial. Even though the Queen keeps yelling OFF WITH HIS HEAD, it never happens and I like the way the subjects handle the situation.
FOR WHAT PORPOISE?
Scarlett Johansson who is the highest paid actress in Hollywood does a great job. I also loved B.J. Harrison's performance in the 95 cent version of this story. Others did not like him so you may want to pay extra for the starlet.

Spectacular Performance by Scarlett Johansson
Easy listening for adults and children alike. Johansson is no short of remarkable bringing these many characters to life! It's hard to believe she does the voices for all. Great audio for a road trip, bedtime story, or lazy day.

OH I Would like to hear more very much!
Any additional comments?
Being a Disney lover, I obviously knew the story of Alice in Wonderland, but had never actually read the book. When I saw that Scarlett Johansson was the narrator I bought it to check it out. She was amazing! She really brought the characters alive and I enjoyed the whole book from start to finish. Her story telling had me love the adventure so much more than even before that I picked up the book and we are reading it at home to my boys. I always try to be animated when reading out loud to them, but this has really given me even more encouragement! Such a great find, I hope she comes back to do more!

A calssic no doubt
Would you listen to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland again? Why?
I would indeed.
What other book might you compare Alice's Adventures in Wonderland to and why?
None to think of.
What about Scarlett Johansson’s performance did you like?
All of it, she's quite good with voices, even if I hadn't seen any film she's been in.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The Mad Tea Party was hilarious.
Any additional comments?
A must-have for certain.

Johansson ruined it for me
Her hoarse voice and weird voices made it too cringy. Buy the one with bj harrison hes much better.

Why is this a classic?
I was excited to finally read this classic work of Carroll's. However, this is the most non-sensical, confusing, detached string of events that I have ever read. It doesn't even classify as an anthology. It is one story that makes no rational sense on how things occur from one to the next. Alice is in a room, crying so much the room fills with her tears creating an ocean, and then she finds a shore of animals who after a series of non-sensical events all then return home....BUT I thought this was all in a room of doors?? Anyway, Johansson is a fantastic narrator despite Carroll's odd story. #Fantasy #Absurd #tagsgiving #sweepstakes

pas évident
Quelle caractéristique de la performance de Scarlett Johansson aurait pu être améliorée ?
les voix des personnages secondaire sont parfois pas du tout agréable a entendre.
Alors que la vois d’Alice et du narrateur est très douce et agréable merci Scarlett Johansson
Avez-vous d'autres commentaires ?
Assez difficile a suivre pour un débutant en anglais.
Le vocabulaire est assez évolué.

Great listen.
Thoroughly enjoyed listening to this, one of my favourites books when I was growing up. Just goes to show what a difference a great actress makes when narrating a book.

Fabulous reading by Ms Scarlett Johansson
The story: well, a classic I had never read, Never too late. I wonder what Lewis Carroll abused of when he wrote it (question I asked myself when I saw Disney’s animated movie). Still, a piece of art!
Ms. Scarlett Johansson (voice actress): waow! She was perfect! Thank you!
