A wonderful and creative help!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
My daughter and I had many fun hours planning and hosting several parties for some other small homeschooled friends. We mixed a few recipes and substituted some games to suit a diverse age group. Our guests were very complimentary and we received many hugs in thanks.
One of the best tea party books available!

No tea library should be without "Taking Tea with Alice". It is well-conceived and a source of many creative ideas. The photos are wonderful. I particularly liked the children's photos and have found them useful in prompting ideas for other children's tea parties. The table layouts are accurate and beautiful. The ideas presented are within the means of any tea party organizer. This book is a good value and not filled with fluff. An informative, fun book for all ages!
A beautiful book with very creative party ideas

This is a wonderful book for anyone interested in Alice in Wonderland, Tea, or just plain entertaining. The book is beautifully illustrated and contains many creative party ideas for children and adults alike. I have tried, and enjoyed, several of the recipes - I particularly recommend the trifle - a real show stopper! I also enjoyed the historical information about the "real" Alice. This book is a "must" for any lover of good food and gracious entertaining.
Whimsical and enchanting-a marvelous escape into yesteryear!

This tea party book with its references to "Alice in Wonderland" and its scrumptiously inviting table settings is a feast for the eyes. In addition to its excellent party-planning ideas, it provides lots of imaginative games and fascinating historical tidbits that enhance the already luscious recipes inside. And it is not "just" a children's book....the trifle and the mimosa punch are going to be welcome additions to my holiday dining table next Christmas! All in all, it fits in comfortably with and enhances my growing library of books on tea rituals, decorative ideas, antiques, and Victoriana. I love it!
Read the book from cover to cover in one sitting-it's great!

Wonderful suggestions for themed tea parties; from what to serve, decorations, games, etc. The suggestions cater to children's tea parties, but there are also recipes and ideas for grown-up and family teas. This is a great book to add to your collection or give as a gift!
