Listen up - you're about to lose control on a topsy-turvy adventure with a girl named Alice, one very cool, semi-invisible rabbit, a card-playing misfit with some serious headgear, and the wickedest queen you've ever seen!"Wait just one minute," you say, "I've heard this story before." Baby, you've never heard it like this.This tale is told by Whoopi Goldberg, the most outrageous storyteller around. This isn't Wonderland, it's the big, bad city. And these characters aren't like any you've ever met. You're about to find out that this town is bursting with crazy surprises.See, Alice has won a mysterious prize worth big bucks that she's sure will change her life forever. But first she's got to claim it - in person.Take off with Alice down streets where bendy buildings wave over your head. Watch the kaleidoscope colors of graffiti fly by on the subway. Even stop off at a diner that shrinks up smaller than your lunchbox. Just don't linger too long over that tiny hamburger (even if those loony twin waiters do crack you up) because there's a snooty uptown queen who's just itching to snatch the prize ticket away from Alice.Join some new friends in a dizzying race against time that's sure to mess up your hairdo and remind you that wild and wonderful things can happen in worlds as nearby as your very own neighborhood.
