Inhaltsangabe

“Bernard and his newfound friends—revolutionary rats, wise-cracking cats, and coffee-chugging squirrels, to name a few—will delight and inspire readers of all ages!”    —Erin Entrada Kelly, Newbery Medal-winning author of Hello, Universe

The drowsy Dormouse from Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is transported to modern-day New York City for the adventure of a lifetime in this middle grade novel that’s perfect for fans of Stuart Little and written by critically acclaimed author Cara Hoffman.

When a girl in a blue dress crashes the Mad Hatter’s eternal tea party, the sleepy Dormouse feels more awake than he has in a long time. He wishes he could follow her and be a part of her adventure.

And as luck would have it, a surprising twist of fate sends the Dormouse on an adventure of his own, where he must not fall asleep. For he is destined to save a magical world outside Wonderland, and it will take all his courage—and a few new friends—to do it.


New York City is a long way from Wonderland, and Bernard will need more than just courage to survive.


  • An Alice in Wonderland Retelling: The sleepy Dormouse leaves the Mad Hatter’s tea party behind for a brand-new adventure on the streets of modern-day New York City.
  • Unlikely Friendships: To succeed, Bernard will need the help of wise-cracking cats, revolutionary rats, and even coffee-chugging squirrels.
  • A Secret World of Animals: Discover a hidden animal society living just beneath the notice of humans, with its own subways, heroes, and villains.
  • A Humorous and Heartfelt Adventure: Perfect for middle grade readers who love classic tales like Stuart Little, this story is packed with courage, humor, and heart.
