It’s Here! It’s Here! In all its Wonderland craziness!

Door: Why it’s simply impassible!
Alice: Why, don’t you mean impossible?
Door: No, I do mean impassible. (chuckles) Nothing’s impossible!

~ Lewis Carroll, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

Our Whimsical Classic Collection is growing!

If you had told us ten years ago that we’d be making wacky, WONDERfully colourful editions like this one of our favourite classics… Well, we might have been much like Alice! But apparently, as the Door says, “Nothing’s impossible!” 🎉

It’s here, it’s here! In all its Wonderland craziness and you can now preorder this exclusive edition from our site. This dust jacketed hardcover, with art and design by our very own Micheline Ryckman, includes interior illustrations, and during the preorder period you have the option of ordering this edition with sprayed edges (as shown)!!!

This edition is only available in our shop.

The first 20 orders will receive the bookmark pictured below for free* (shipped separately). And if you buy during the preorder period, you’ll have the option to get your copy with gorgeous striped sprayed edges!
The sprayed edge option will only be available during the preorder period, which ends on release day April 21st, 2026.  

This is a PREORDER. Any items purchased with this book will be held and shipped together when this book is released on April 21, 2026.

“I can’t explain myself, I’m afraid, sir,” said Alice, “Because I’m not myself, you see.”
~~~
When Alice sees a white rabbit take a watch out of its waistcoat pocket she decides to follow it, and a sequence of most unusual events is set in motion.

Lewis Carroll’s works are in the public domain in Canada and can be printed without copyright infringement.

So the books we’re discounting are ONLY the ones we have left in hand with our Shop Manager. How will you know if it’s in hand or not? Purchases from the two listings below are everything we still have in hand!

Scratch & Dent – Slightly Damaged or Discontinued editions

Cyber Monday In Hand Books – All remaining stock of undamaged copies

All orders will come with free postcards and a free bookmark.

And YES, this also counts for our in-stock coloring books!

Persuasion is Here!

And then there were four!

Today, Whimsical’s exclusive edition of Persuasion is out in the world!

Our edition was designed to match the other three books in our Jane Austen collection with a gorgeous design on the hardcase beneath the dust jacket, both created by artist and historical romance author Jenelle Hovde, along with interior illustrations and ornamentals.

*The bookmark was only available during the preorder and will be sent separately from the book. Please allow up to 6 weeks after the release date to receive it.

Persuasion Blurb:

At twenty-­seven, Anne Elliot is no longer young and has few romantic prospects. Eight years earlier, she had been persuaded by her friend Lady Russell to break off her engagement to Frederick Wentworth, a handsome naval captain with neither fortune nor rank. What happens when they encounter each other again is movingly told in Jane Austen’s last completed novel. Set in the fashionable societies of Lyme Regis and Bath, Persuasion is a brilliant satire of vanity and pretension, but, above all, it is a love story tinged with the heartache of missed opportunities.

Filled with Jane Austen’s trademark wit, Persuasion is both a delightful romantic comedy and a surprisingly subversive exploration of our need to persuade, and be persuaded by, others.

Buy it here!


Don’t forget, we have another Whimsical Exclusive classic currently available for preorder!

Be sure to snag your copy of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe while the free bookmark and sprayed edges are still available!


And don’t miss our Black Friday sale next week! It’s our biggest sale of the year!

30% off entire shop (excluding preorders)
