... editions are only separated if the annotations make up the bulk of the text, and/or if there's a huge social difference (The Annotated Alice being the canonical example). These definitely don't come anywhere close to that. if a newer edition of Annotated Alice came out without the additional notes & information, then they are doing their readers a diservice... I would assume that any later editions have the information...
I would say leave all of the AA's together with or without the "more alice" ....
... ... unless they're so extensive as to make up most of the text of the work and create a different social context (example: The Annotated Alice).

I think that I would have liked Alice except for the info provided in More Annotated Alice. Instead of enjoying the book, I was wondering if Carroll was a pedophile. Now I'm debating on reading Throught the looking Glass. I was given Divided Destiny by David A Takami and bought The Annotated Wizard of Oz accidentally.

43.Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There by Lewis Carroll
Together in More Annotated Alice by Lewis Carroll edited by Martin Gardner I was really hoping to get The Annotated Alice from our public library for the group read, but they no longer have it. So I picked up a B&N Classics edition for $5. How's the annotated version? Is it worth picking up? Mine's The Annotated Alice - The Definitive Edition with the original illustrations by Tenniel, copyright 2000.
I've never read any Alice and I'm finding it delightful. I just picked up a copy of More Annotated Alice from the library. Anxious to start it. ... Slant of Light

I haven't seen that one, but I have the Annotated Alice in Wonderland and Annotated Sherlock Holmes, both of which I think have such extensive additional material that they are, in effect, a different work. I would not combine them with the text standing alone. ... quicker typing in a list of numbers than typing in each title.

#30 kageeh I'm glad you pointed that out. Alice in Wonderland is one of my favorite books and sure, it makes more sense if you're stoned, but it's a great book anyway. Unfortunately, he was also a pedophile. I suspect Alice in Wonderland makes more sense if you've ever "smoked". Lewis Carroll was a known user of hallucinogenics. I can't imagine Alice in Wonderland with any illustrations other than those of John Tenniel. ... Synopsis thread. Although neither is coherent.
Its shaping up to resemble Lewis Carroll's alternate universe in Alice in Wonderland.
