Category: Middle Grade.

Synopsis from Goodreads:

Once again Alice gets swept away into the world of whimsy known as Wonderland.
This time as a spy!

She is…Code Name: ALICE

When the nefarious Knave of Hearts steals T.A.R.T.S. (a very powerful and very secret weapon) from Wonderland, the King and Queen send the White Rabbit to recruit the most qualified person they know for a recovery mission: Alice. Just like that, she is sent into Looking-Glass Land with her super spy gadgetry and her knack for getting into trouble – what could go wrong?

My Thoughts:

4 stars.

What if Alice became a spy?

That is the premise of this middle-grade novel retelling/spin off of Alice in Wonderland.
Alice is twelve and summoned back to wonderland. Her help is needed by wonderland as a spy! She is sent into Looking Glass Land to hunt down the Knave of Hearts and his secret weapon T.A.R.T.S

From Wonderland, With love is an exciting adventure that very much felt Wonderland-esque. It was well written, with the most memorable characters from Wonderland making an appearance. There is lots of action that keeps the story moving at an engaging pace. And there is an exciting and satisfactory ending.

This was a well done Wonderland tale that I really enjoyed. I will be reading any other books released in the series. I highly recommend it to middle-grade readers. It would also be suitable for younger readers who read above their grade level. Older readers who are fans of wonderland will enjoy this one too.

Note: If you haven’t read Alice In Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass, you technically don’t have to read this, but I think it would be much more enriching if you do as this very much feels like a sequel to those books.
