I think I would appreciate this book a lot more if I was more familiar or nostalgic about Alice in Wonderland, but I was never especially interested in that particular story. I think people who already like Alice would get a lot more out of the parallels of the original story to the Indigenous (specifically, Anishinaabe) culture infused crossover. I liked learning more about these characters in Anishinaabe lore in this middle grade tale, and learning some new words alongside some I've learned from other books like Braiding Sweetgrass. I'd recommend this most to the target middle grade audience, especially lovers of the original tale or who can relate to the feelings of isolation our main character Aimée faces due to being Indigenous, nonbinary, and overall "different" to a harsh middle school crowd. 

One line I found hilarious was the Queen saying “Are you a little boy? A girl?” and Aimée replying “a gamer.” like mood sometimes you don’t want to explain your gender, let me just tell you about me instead.

I also found it really cool that we learn on the dedication page that the author’s earnings are going to support the Sanilac Petroglyphs for their protection and recognition.
